Excuse me, I gotta go count my taste buds.
From here:
How many tastebuds does a human have?No, seriously... You make a good point. How in the heck are you supposed to know how many taste buds you have?!?The average human has about 10,000 taste buds; however, they're not all on the tongue. Some are under the tongue; some are on the inside of the cheeks; some are on the roof of the mouth. Some can even be found on the lips; these are especially sensitive to salt.
