Curious Cases visited the Today Programme on Radio 4 to conduct a taste test on Sarah Montague and Nick Robinson, with surprising results. Supertasters experience more intense flavours when they eat certain foods. Around 15% of people in the West are supertasters, with a higher rate in Asia. There are other tests you can do yourself at home to find out if you're a supertaster. To find out, listen to 'The Dreadful Vegetable' from The Curious Cases of Rutherford & Fry.
