I tested as a non-taster
How do you get this test? I want to get the results and email them to my sister and read them aloud over my mother's resting place--provided they prove I really am a supertaster and not just fussy ans stubborn.
I did the test in a Psych class (Sensation & Perception, IIRC), but I seem to remember looking online after and the strips were available to purchase. All it was was a little strip of paper that you put in your mouth (and chew? maybe?), which to me (and the one other non-taster in the room) was just a plain piece of paper. To the regular, or average, or whatever people, it was slightly bitter. To the super-tasters, it was apparently so strongly flavored it was disgusting and they were actively PISSED at the teacher until someone handed around Altoids.
I'm actually a pretty picky eater despite being a non-taster. For me, it's mostly texture issues, though.
Interesting, Epic.
Man, I just remembered about Three Bean Soup and now I want an Iced Vanilla Soy Latte

Re: Trump:
Did you say he was or wasn't a serial monogamist? I just didn't hear you.
He's a serial monogamist. He's been married several times.
You know he slept with a porn star during his current marriage?
Yes. That's true, but he does at least get married. We have to give him that. I mean, everybody exemplifies some ideals and not others.

Unrelated to the actual point, but I do wish we could get over the need to mention "with a porn star" every time this comes up, as if the sleazy part is Stormy Daniels' day job and not Trump's cheating ass.
[eta: "We" = The American media, of which I'm not actually a part, so really "they"]
I'm just envisioning the end of Some Like It Hot. "Well, nobody's perfect!"
Except far more gross and distressing.

Yeah, I was just handed a little strip and it was disgusting! But I also love brussels sprouts, etc.

Heh.
But does that person not know the definition of monogamist??

Apparently it means "Banging only 1 person at a time."
Apparently it means "Banging only 1 person at a time."
In other words, no threesomes.
