For instance if you think of asparagus do you automatically taste it as well?
or if you think of a strawberry, do you have a taste sensation of that strawberry along with your thought?
or do you have to search for the taste?
Or can you taste it at all?

I have thoughts associated with these different foods, but I don’t actually taste something unless I’m actually tasting it. On the other hand, if I think of crack seed or li hing mui or lemons my mouth starts to water. A reaction, though, not a taste.
Yes – with my mind’s tongue.
Well,only if I’ve tried that thing. I don’t how could we taste something we never try before.
No, but I can remember what it tasted like.
All the time – especially KFC !!
Yes, and I can dream tastes and smells, too.
yes. when i think about blood, i can actually taste it in my mouth as strange as that sounds. it’s also delicious, nutritious, and keeps me alive.
Um….not really. I can taste it in my mind though. But, when I think of sounds that are distinct, I can DEFINITELY hear it. Like when you hear someone say “fingers on the chalkboard” AHHHHH!!! My ears screech!! and I shudder at the sound, as if I’m actually hearing it. (still shuddering)
I am able to feel something I am thinking about. :)
Not really, i tried imagining the taste of an orange, or my favourite whiskey. I can recognize what they taste like, and i can describe it with words, but i can’t conjure up the sensation of taste in my head.
Yes, but it’s what I’m trained to do.
I can tell what something will taste like before I make it in the kitchen.
