Taste is the ability to respond to dissolved molecules and ions called tastants. Humans detect taste with taste receptor cells. These are clustered in taste buds. Each taste bud has a pore that opens out to the surface of the tongue enabling molecules and ions taken into the mouth to reach the receptor cells inside.
There are five primary taste sensations: salty, sour, sweet, bitter and umami.
A single taste bud contains 50--100 taste cells representing all 5 taste sensations (so the classic textbook pictures showing separate taste areas on the tongue are wrong). Each taste cell has receptors on its apical surface. These are transmembrane proteins which bind to the molecules and ions that give rise to the 5 taste sensations. Although a single taste cell may have representatives of several types of receptor, one type may be more active than the others on that cell. And, no single taste cell contains receptors for both bitter and sweet tastants. Each taste receptor cell is connected, through a synapse, to a sensory neuron leading back to the brain. However, a single sensory neuron can be connected to several taste cells in each of several different taste buds. The sensation of taste like all sensations resides in the brain .
The average person has about 10,000 taste buds and they're replaced every 2 weeks or so. But as a person ages, some of those taste cells don't get replaced. An older person may only have 5,000 working taste buds. That's why certain foods may taste stronger to a child than an adult. Smoking (they say) also can reduce the number of taste buds a person has...
in all honesty.. I'd have to say that taste is in the mouth of the beholder.. if your man is saying you taste sour, I'd suggest a douche.. maybe you just need a good cleaning?.. I'm truly not sure what its supposed to taste like since I'm a straight female.. but I do know that your body tends to secrete the things you eat.. so it would make sense that if you've been eating anything with vinegar it would make it taste sour.
