    METHOD:

    The easiest way is to do this is with a parent, guardian or friend. Have them blindfold you before they prepare the items for tasting to make sure you have no idea what the items are. Of the foods you taste at least 2 should be from each taste sensation category. Taste each item individually. Make sure that your parent, guardian or friend takes notes using the template below for each food that you taste. For each item you have 3 guessing attempts. Once the test is complete, fill out your worksheet. If it takes you more than 3 attempts, tick ‘unable to identify’.

    Food Name: Taste Sensation: 

    Guessed correctly on attempt:                                            /3                                                      Unable to Identify: ☐

    Etc.
