I hear about a lot of strange things here at NeverSmell, but this one is just plain cool. Scientists recently discovered taste buds on lungs!
Any anosmic has probably had to explain to variety of people (usually olfies) at some point why they can taste but not smell. Well here’s some new information that’ll be equally fun to share at parties or around the office cooler:
- Lungs Can ‘Taste’ Dangerous Bacteria, Researchers Say published by the Wall Street Journal
- Discovery of Taste Buds on Lungs Enabled Scientists to Make an Effective Drug for Asthma published by Star City News.
- Taste receptors found in lungs published by ABC News
Definitely check those articles out.

My mother cannot smell. Until I found your site, I thought she was the only one. Which is silly I know.
Pretty cool! I’ve learned all kinds of things. I still, even after 35 years ask her to smell things sometimes. Thanks for the information.
