SuicidalXWing Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Salt tastes kinda rough. What I meant by that is like sugar has a soft taste, in that it almost always gives a good sensation, while salt being rough, gives a sometimes not so good sensation, its more bland.

Cal_da_Darth Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Rough describes the texture. U nog! j/k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuicidalXWing Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I wasn't referring to the texture, because salt can be fine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philocleon Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 I once had caviar. That tasted like getting a mouthful of ocean seawater while swimming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Salt tastes like what you get from the dead sea when you evaporate the water and eats the white stuff that's left over. It tastes like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kjølen Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 It taste like a tingely fealing. It taste like your tounge srivels or ... crunches together. Yes they're more of feelings than taste... but it's impossible to answer that quesion because salt is accually a primary taste. If you eat chicken and say it taste salty, your using a primary taste to make a secondary taste. Asking how salt taste is like saying "What color is pure black?"

Pisces Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 The opposite of pure white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasslera Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Black isnt a color, its the absence of all color. I say salt tastes sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lujayne Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Um, how about, it tates "briney"? O_o Lynk, do you have an answer to this?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted October 30, 2002 Author Share Posted October 30, 2002 Briny is another way of saying salty... hmmmmmmmz... so it's not a 'correct' answer... u nog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 You said without saying "salty". Neither Brackish nor Briney even look like the word "Salty". They may mean they same thing but the people who posted that did not say "salty", as you said not to. They win let's all go home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer: No. Salt is a primary taste, so the question is answerable correctly. 'No' is a valid answer. Nyah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
