Answer: Th...I had this same question a while ago... Answer: The reason it does taste different unside down is because your taste buds are on your tongue, which when you chew obviously goes under the food. Sandwich fillings being initially stacked mean that what ever is on the bottom of the sandwich will be the first taste you receive until the food is sufficiently chewed to combine all flavors. If you were to bite a sandwich with the meat on the bottom and mayo on top, the meet flavor would be more predominant for the first few chews until the flavors have mixed. Then if you were to flip it upside down, the mayo would be more predominant for the first few chews etc.<br /><br />A good example of this is... if you put onion in your sandwich... put in on the very bottom... the taste is quite horrible until its mixed, but even then the flavor has permeated your taste buds and the whole sandwich will be overpowered with onion. Now take the same amount of onion, but put it in the middle or more to the top... and its quite pleasant as its had a chance to mix with the other ingredients by the time you taste it properly. :)<br />Steven Youngnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179948267056784673.post-29286347958617849702013-05-31T20:32:27.308-04:002013-05-31T20:32:27.308-04:00I eat sandwiches upside down too, but it depends o...I eat sandwiches upside down too, but it depends on the type, but not burgers.

He will never eat the center, always eats around the hole in the middle. I suppose he doesn't want to get frosting on his face... Which is weird because every other sweet confection always gets on his face, and sticks for a while.Daddy's in Charge?https://www.blogger.com/profile/04798934647553198219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179948267056784673.post-35837965888175201122011-10-03T18:53:13.702-04:002011-10-03T18:53:13.702-04:00I save the bite with the pickle for last (and obvi...I save the bite with the pickle for last (and obviously best)eating around the pickle and I notice my son does this thing with mac and cheese or say corn that he eats one at a time at a rather rapid pace like a mouse would - not all the time, must just be on days he thinks he's a mouse - not sure..Coffee Lovin' Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06800797028012321249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179948267056784673.post-84863623902920448132011-10-03T15:58:12.145-04:002011-10-03T15:58:12.145-04:00At last!

I eat my foods the same way, except.....this year I decided I am not eating the crusts anymore. Not even going to try and pretend I am. It's a privilege I have earned from being a parent for 24 years. My 7yo will just have to suck it up and accept that Mommy has a different status level than he does, lol. ;)~Valerie~https://www.blogger.com/profile/11233555485334079167noreply@blogger.com
