sweet, sour, salt and bitter
I would add to this: spicy. I actually try to integrate all five tasts in a meal and try to avoid processed food like the devil. :-) I find if I stay with lots of fresh vegetables I get all tastes easily.
And of course the food companies have to add sugar and salt as it is more addictiv.
Well, sour like from lemon juice or vinegar in the salad sauce, which I always make myself.
and I guess both bitter and sour are also in Helen's cranberries. :-)
That's what comes to mind right now, I am sure if I would think about it more I could think of others too.
as sour are also considered: rhubarb, tomatoes, sauerkraut, yoghurt.
additional bitters can be considered: parsley, celery tops, garlic, onion, dandelion, which you can currently find fresh in the fields.
