Taste page 7

Taste page 7 by ric gustafson


The second basic taste is bitter. In small amounts bitter like caffeine and alcohol can be a comfort. In larger doses these things can be lethal. Most people avoid bitter things. Many foods taste bitter. These include amino acids, lactone and peptides. Coffee is famous for it's bitter taste and that's because of it's phenolic acids. The bitterness of tea and chocolate comes from the same acids.
