Let us see how the tongue tells us the different tastes.

Collect the following things:

  • sugar candy or jaggery      
  • salt
  • tamarind or lemon
  • fenugreek (methi) seeds 
  • a piece of an amla

Taste each of these things. After tasting each one, rinse your mouth with water, wait for two minutes, and then taste the next one. Make the following table and complete it :
