General Science / Re: Why (or how) does salt make food taste better?
« on: 27/09/2021 12:43:15 »?It wouldn't make ice cream taste better even though there is a little salt in milk. It is just that most people like the flavour of salt on foods that it is compatible with why do we like sugar for the same reason. This is true for all flavours in all foods. PS salt activates our saliva and the chemicals in our saliva activate and distributes the flavour. Salt is vital for our bodies to survive and as a result, we crave for it.
