Answers:
When you burn your tongue, you also burn your taste buds!. which does lower your tasting!. But in about a day your tongue will grow new taste buds!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It wont harm you permanently!. Your taste buds are designed to almost "replace" themselves regularly!. This is why when you burn your tongue, it really really hurts for a while, then all of a sudden, it feels alright again!. Burning your taste buds repeatedly wont leave any lasting effects!. However, it does hurt when you do it and I wouldnt recommend it >!.<Www@FoodAQ@Com
