Like spicy food = masochist

We had a substitute profe in AP1 once. I remember clearly about her joke about taste buds. We recognize 5 taste: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami, through the gustatory nerve.

She joked about liking to call people who love spicy food as masochist because spicy sensation stimulates pain receptors in the mouth. harhar.

I remember this because I thought it was in interesting fact.
