Default Taste.

As I'm sitting in Starbucks, not working on the outline that is due in an hour. I find myself reading the back of my coffee, and I really enjoy this quote.

Quote:
Taste is subjective. Taste is democratic. Taste is powerful. Taste - the combination of texture, aroma, temperature, aesthetic, and environment - is also a window into someone else's life or culture.

Be confident in your taste, but remain curious and expose yourself to new tastes. Allow your taste to constantly evolve and grow - while keeping and cherishing the memories that taste creates.

-- Marcus Samuelsson

I embrace hardship and privation with ecstatic delight; I want everything the world holds; I would go to prison or to the scaffold for the sake of the experience. I have never grown out of the infantile belief that the universe was made for me to suck. I grow delirious to contemplate the delicious horrors that are certain to happen to me. This is the keynote of my life, the untrammeled delight in every possibility of existence, potential or actual. -- Alester Crowley

I like reading the things they put on cups. Some of them can be pretty interesting, so good find!

I had that cup like 3 days ago! It made me really think about taste, not just of foods, but of things like music, style, and women. So far, I have lead a pretty close-minded life as far as trying new things, I must change this.....

Some Chef's have 4 areas of taste. Sweet Sour Salty and Bitter. I think there are actually many more. Some chefs say there are like 16. The ones I can think of are, Spicy Aromatic Earthy Fatty Pungent Floral on top of the first 4. If I think of more I'll post em.
