There's clearly a spectrum since some people say they taste ZERO soap, which is crazy. To me, there's no question that it tastes like soap. There's nothing special, there's just evidence: https://flavourjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/2044-7248-1-22 There's a bunch of papers but here's one. Also: preference and detection may be driven by separate genes/gene complexes with some overlapping association. However, binding of the 'soapy' functions (a specific group of aldehydes) has been shown to be associated with a specific genetic variation in an olfactory receptor. It's a robust finding. --- I'm am hungry I want some lasaga ... Copied to Clipboard! |
