I had been in my college life with Ramen and beef bowl.
After marriage, I was shocked to know that
"Sense of taste is easy to change by devices for eating and serving food"
It was more than "paradigm shift"
Especially "tea" is great.
Using "Kutani-Yaki" tea pod, the taste of tea becomes greater than using other pods.
In addition, drinking a "Hagi-Yaki" cup, the taste become better moreover.
-----
It is nonsense to think that the ceramic is meting in the tea,
- thermal insulation of the pod and the cup
- contacting interval between cup and mouth
- pouring speed of tea from cup to mouth
- beautiful shape that makes me feel easy
All of the above must be useful to improve the taste.
It might be possible to calculate them totally(though I don't want it.)
-----
Like the above, I think that I can understand that taste is made up from total of five senses.
On the other hand, I don't change my mind of
"a plastic leaf in a lunch box at convenience stores, annoys me."
If it is a real leaf, there seems to be antisepsis or good scent
In the case of the plastic leaf, I have to remove it from the lunch box( insanitation when using finger)
It looks like the lunch box is poor, and totally there is nothing good of it.
I want companies of convenience stores to discuss a disuse of the plastic leaf.
