Tongue Map Debunked

For the second year in a row, Tyson participated in the Meridian Elementary Science Fair. He did a project about taste. He learned about tongue mapping, and taste perception. It was a fun project (for me too, I love food science and anatomy). He had a great display describing his project including red/green french fries, a blue hamburger, and blue milk (showing how the color of food effects our perception of food).

It was amazing that it all came together considering the afternoon of the fair. Kate sprayed his whole display with a water bottle, Tyson hadn't saved his work on the computer, and our printer wasn't printing. (Luckily the copying feature was, it saved our bacon).
"Phew", we're both glad that is done, good work Tyson.
