Taste Buds

I was thinking about what I would do if I lost any of my five senses. I decided I could live with being deaf, but I do not think I could deal with being blind. That would be the scariest thing ever. I watch the blind people around campus and sometimes I just want to walk with them to make sure they get to their destination okay. What if they get lost, there is no way they can find their way unless they run into a person by chance, and if they do not then they are screwed. :( I also decided I would not be to upset if I lost the sense of taste, although I LOVE food and what it tastes like, that could also be a bad thing. Taste has its advantages in the sense that it is very enjoyable, but most of the time good foods are fattening so that screws you over. If you couldn't taste you could eat healthy food and still be satisfied, and you probably would not get the same cravings for food since you do not even know what it taste like. I feel like it would kind of suck but at the same time you would be winning in the end :)
