Senses and Stuff

 This weeks blog I decided to choose this article on taste. More specifically our intestines have taste buds! Interestingly enough it is similar to our own tongues as they can detect all 6 types of tastes. The main job of the intestine being able to detect different tastes is for it to regulate our digestion and metabolism. More importantly scientists use these findings to help obese and diabetes. I think this article is really interesting because I've never heard of this before, and I find it a little creepy in a way because of how our intestines can taste food. In a way it's like having a little mini monster inside of me living.
