You have to choose one flavor that your sense of taste will no longer be able to distinguish.Sweet,sour,bitter,salty, Umami,spicy( not a taste per se,but we’re generous ): which one do you choose to lose?

I know I cannot have sugar only for taste because of the damaging effect on the human body, salt is the same, excessive salt raises blood pressure,I haven’t heard anything negative about bitter, but bitter flavor alone is not going to do it for me.

Umami flavor sounds good to me. It is good for health, it is a protein which is made up of amino acids which are essential for life. I will pick umami flavor.

Umami has been variously translated from Japanese asyummy, deliciousness .

365 Writing Prompt: The natural world

Describe your first memorable experience exploring and spending time in nature. Were you in awe? Or were younot impressed? Would you rather spend time in the forest of the city?

My first memorable experience spending time in nature was when we came to Newfoundland, Canada. My husband got a job in Gander, and we were told about the impressive park, close to Gander which took about forty minutes by car. It is where we saw nature in all its glory. We spent the whole day exploring different parts of the park. I’m posting an youtube video, which will show more of nature than I’d be able to describe.
