Can you taste colors?!

Answers:
years ago in life magazine there was an article about color, where blind people could discern color by their feel!.
obviously, their sense of touch is heightned!.
i was about 10 or 12, but with a little practice i could figure out color by touch too!.
since our tongues are more sensitive, they could ascertain the differences too, but is this taste!? would the pigments taste different!?
if we use a loose definition of taste the answer is yes!.
if we use a traditional definition of taste, i'd say not!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

well I'd hate to rain on your parade but I can't see how you would taste colors!. I think what you are thinking of is that you associate a certain color with a certain taste and beleive you can taste color!.
Although there is also a certain disorder (not exactly a disorder) where your senses work differently and can sense different things!. (example: smell color, see sound, etc!.!.!.)
^not sure about that last thing with the disorder and all but I vaguely remember hearing something like that off the discovery channel when I was like 5Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can't taste colours, though it is true that many flavoured compounds are coloured, there is no match between colours and a specific taste!. Some similarly coloured foods - such as pizza topics and ketchup - are so coloured because they both contain tomatoes, not because there is any intrinsic link between taste and colours!. However, try spreading strawberry jam on your pasta and you'll taste something very different!Www@FoodAQ@Com
The human mind likes to believe it can see what it really cant!.!.!.another example would be ghosts!. Some people train their mind to believe they can and then convince themselves it actually happened!. If you actually tried very hard to taste a color your brain would think you did!. But if you asked someone who didn't care about what color they were tasting, it would most likley not work!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
Only those born with it can!. I saw something in discovery about this one person who can taste color because their senses are all junctioned as one!. There's even one where a man can taste the words he hears!. Crazy as it sounds it is true!. I forgot the title of the odcumnetary but it was phenomenal!Www@FoodAQ@Com
I don't think that you can taste colors!.
But certain colors can make you more hungry than others!.
For example;
Red, Orange, Yellow and Brown can make you want to eat!. Take notice to places like McDonald's!.!.!. they use three of these colors!.
Blue, Purple, Green, and Black don't seem so appetizing and usually aren't used for food packaging!.

Only people who are indigo children can!. Indigo children are a new breed!. They can see music, taste color, smell music, and see through objects, in a way that they see their potential not what they are!. They see the world in a way no one can!. I think I'm one!. I can taste color!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
hate to say but i think your friend is right!. you cant specifically taste colors but i think we associate certain colors with a flavor or taste!. for instance, blue: blue raspberry, purple: grape, red: cherry, green: apple!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
I don't think it's the taste, I think it's the intensity of the color that adds to the taste!. Like, red (with low wavelengths) is a more sullen pang of flavor, and purple (with high wvl) is more sharp!. Catch my drift!? :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
you cannot taste color , it is a result of light!.
however, taste can be identified or sorted by color, so in that context you would be tasting a color!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Food dyes have no taste!. Natural colors like turmeric or Annatto or beet roots do have flavors!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
