"Twelve flavors? Let's see what it's all about!"


If you are a fan of Gummy Bears, you may know that the delicious little candies were introduced for the first time in the United States by the German company Haribo several decades ago and that the American offers of the company remain confined to five distinct flavors and colors: raspberry (red); Orange (orange); strawberry (green); pineapple (colorless); and lemon (yellow). But if you are a real super-fan of bear gummeux - likeScott Barolo, Professor of Cellular Biology and Development at the University of Michigan Medical School - you will be happy to know that there are other brands of gummeux in competition that even offerFollowing Tasty aromas.

When Barolo discovered a pack oftwelve aromas(!!) Albanian "Gummi Bears" -Weer has claimed to be boldless, gluten-free, low sodium - he could not contain his enthusiasm, then geele on this subject on Twitter in the most hilarious way. In fact, the gummy enthusiastic with wide-eyed eyes was so gobscacked by the idea of ​​twelve aromas that gave the state-and taste check the entire package to make sure the flavors were all accounted for, affecting each Step of his trip on Twitter. The amusing thread has since disappeared viral.

Once again, Barolo was doubtful on the perspective as his bag of small "gummi" actually wearsTwelve distinct colors and flavors.

Therefore, being a scientist, he adopted a very mathematical approach to determine whether it was, indeed, the case and was flat to find that he could not distinguish only 11 color flavors.

It did not match the flavors listed at the back of the package, which included cherry, strawberry, mango, lemon, pineapple, orange, green apple, watermelon, pink grapefruit, lime, raspberry blue and grape.

And, assuming that the gummi flavored with the grapes would be purple as usual, it seemed to have been stolen completely from this flavor.

Based only on visual clues, he managed to identify the other 11 flavors. There seems to be a disproportionate amount of lime in its bag and a deficit of flavors probably tastier, such as strawberry and watermelon.

Someone should really send a letter heavily formulated about it.

He then tried to see if he could distinguish the flavors according to the smell, but there was no luck there because they all felt the same thing. The sensory and auditory variables did not give any other results.

Finally, he has gone to taste. The cherry once tasted like a fall in cherry cough and the strawberry had bold notes of the fruit.

But things have been more complicated when he went to the clearer colors of the spectrum. He struck gold with Orange.

Idem for pink grapefruit.

But then the pineapple turned out to be lemon and the opposite. NOOOOOOO !!!!

Things are not so well spent with the greens either. Long short story, he had 7 out of 11 ok.

"I will not be the Valedicor of Gummi High, but I'm going to the promodi ball," he wrote.

And since the wire has become viral and supplied to the entire Internet with many laughs, we will give it a twitterTainment.

Also, for what it goes,Previous search Suggests that all the gummy bears have really taste the same thing and the only reason we think we have the taste of taste is that our perception of color trompe our brain.
