Let's get back to the topic of taste buds.
I'd still like to know if the statistic you posted was the result of a study.
If so I'd like to see the link, just to understand the number of 75 year old seniors surveyed.
I'd also like to know the methodology used to figure out that the seniors only had 36% of their taste buds remaining.

Average number of taste buds remaining at 75: 36%

No study was mentioned and different studies may yield different results.

Barefoot asked yesterday:
Was there a study done or not.
