This quiz is to see if you are a supertaster or not. Supertasters perceive tastes as stronger than most people would perceive them.

Apparently I am in between a super and normal taster.

I actually like all the foods that supertasters are meant to dislike.

The funny thing is, I dislike coffee, grapefruit, cabbage and spinach, but I love the bitter taste in Brussels sprouts, almonds, liquorice and dark chocolate.

I am a supertaster and I always have liked trying new foods except when I was kid and then I preferred pizza and burgers. 8)

I got between normal taster and non taster. I'm surprised that I didn't get super taster, I hate coffee, spinach, brussell sprouts, asparagus, the taste of medicine, alcohol, etc. I'm not that picky but I can't stand a lot of strong, bitter tastes without gagging. I didn't really find the questions relevant with how you taste things either.
