“…In the 1980s, a group of researchers initiated a taste bud study to discover how cold and hot solutions affect the perception of sweetness (Bartoshuk, Rennert, Rodin, & Stevens, 1982; Paulus & Reisch, 1980). Research on the perception of taste has received attention, particularly in studies looking at the effect of temperature (Green & Nachtigal, 2012; Kanno et al, 2016; Li & Lemon, 2015; Lipscomb, Rieck, & Dawson, 2016) and capsaicin (Green & Schullery, 2003; Narukawa, Sasaki, & Watanabe, 2011; Simons, O'Mahony, & Carstens, 2002). Hot solution and capsaicin elicit strong effects on basic taste perceptions in humans.…”
