Primary 4 were exploring our five basic tastes today: sweet, salty, sour, bitter and umami.  We tasted examples of each and tried to mark them on a taste map of the tongue.  We soon realised that this was a very difficult thing to do because our taste buds can detect different tastes all over our tongue and not just in certain places!  Primary 4 really enjoyed their taste testing session, although from the pictures it’s clear that they enjoyed some tastes far more than others!
