Perhaps Food Tastes Better While Listening To Kiss!

You may not connect the senses of taste and hearing, but a new study does just that. Professor Charles Spence, an experimental psychologist at the University of Oxford, was hired by Sony to examine the relationship between food and music. Spence claims he discovered that food actually tastes better when the person consuming it listens to music from the food’s country of origin while eating it. He says, “We taste with our senses, not our mouths, our tongues do not taste food but actually our brain gets the mouth ready for flavor experiences. The environment around us has a substantial effect on our culinary experience, music can cleanse the palate and can influence and change taste and can heighten your experience.” The data revealed, for example, that if you like the music you’re listening to the food will taste better.  (Daily Mail) (Image: flickr.com)
