Sensory-specific satiety

Say what? :-) I'm doing an online course "The Science of Gastronomy" via Coursera and today I had time to do the first assignment. It consisted of eating 4 gummy bears, 5 crackers and finally one piece of chocolate, in this order and one per 3 minutes, and rating their pleasantness after swallowing. Tonight I'll have to finish the second assignment on the taste map of my mouth, so where on my tongue I best taste salt, sugar, lemon and cacao powder :-) What fun, can't wait to see what next week's assignments will be!
