Horizon: The Truth about Taste
Taste is our most indulgent sense but it is only in recent years that we have started to understand why we really love the foods we do - and it is a lot more surprising than you might think. There may a way to make food taste sweeter without adding any extra sugar and it is all down to a trick that happens in your brain. Horizon meets the scientist who has grown the perfect tomato, that is sweeter and juicier than anything you are likely to find on a shelf, as well as the men and women hoping to become elite, professional tasters.

How do you get into being a taste tester though?
You complain about the quality and taste of the food at hundreds of restaurants, so much so you get into the headlines, then you are headhunted by a food tasting company and BAM!! you are now a TASTE TESTER EXTRODINARE !!!!!!!!!
Seriously how do people not know the word 'umami'?
That's what I thought.
What country are you from? Because I've never heard of it
ignorance, my friend. Ignorance through no fault of their own
5 days later, and it's up 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ when BBC can't use CZcams either. I don't feel so bad
At least they are using it, instead of their own horrendous awful locked down player from hell.
And the video was trash too. Just some random blokes drinking flavored water.
Very interesting. Thank you.
but how can i join in
How to improve myself please give me tips
I wanna join too. My smell and taste is awesome.
I dont understand pls make me to understand
I'm a supertaster. How much do these guys get paid?
So was the lady at 2:49 one of the 5 that day who got the job? if not atleast now she NOSE!
Oh sorry BBC. I’m on the toilet
Call ya later.
So easy it hurts
Of course water ph needs to be 0.zero
like hydrochloric acid, sounds tasty
Or maybe 7
The narration is creepy
i dont care what any one says "umami" is NOT a real flavor. Call it savory, call it anything else..... but it is NOT "umami", it just dosnt fit with the other names, and its a horrible sounding word, on par with "moist"
That's because it's Japanese. They're the ones that came up with the concept that savory does not exactly meet either of the other 4, and the entire culinary world agreed with them.
@@durinsbane1086 savory covers it just fine, which is why if you look up synonyms for "umami" , "savory" is one of them.........and it dosnt make you want to vomit every time you say it.
I mean if this is the hill you want to die on be my guest
PARADOXICLES Wait so you don’t think it’s a real flavour because you don’t like the name?
@@ZOMBIEHEADSHOTKILLER why are you so angry at a foreign word
