We learned tastes in first grade. Miss Kleins class at St Joseph. They all made sense except one. Bitter. Wtf is “bitter”? Sweet, Salty, Sour – they all make sense and are easy to describe through words and example, but not bitter. Its just there and makes no sense.
The only thing I’ve heard referred to as being bitter is the frogs breath Sally uses to cover up the deadly Nightshade she slipped in soup the Dr’s soup in Nightmare Before Christmas (she coughs and goes “bitter! worms wort, where, where’s that worms wort” amid gasps).
The example they gave us in 1st grade was “unsweetened chocolate”, cuz every first grader knows exactly what unsweetened choc tastes like. way to go.
Bitter is a lie perpetuated by the liberal media.
There is no such thing as bitter.
