Noah and Michael were reading The Magic School Bus Explores the Senses on Thursday evening. When Michael got to the pages on the sense of taste Noah excitedly said that the tongue has different sections for sweet, salty and sour. Michael told him that was a myth and was surprised people are still teaching it at school. Noah didn't believe Michael. To show Noah this was false Michael staged an experiment using salt, Powdered Sugar, and QTips. Both Rachel and Noah were game for the experiment. He shielded their eyes from seeing which bowl he dipped the Qtip in, and then touched their tongues in a different place each time. They did the tip, back, middle and both sides of the tongue. They both were hilarious when it was salt because they would grimace. Both of the kids were able to learn by their own observations that the idea of a taste bud map of the tongue was pure BUNK!
