Their <\/span>research(\u7814\u7a76)<\/strong> <\/span>shows that <\/span>fat(\u80a5)<\/strong> <\/span>has the characters of a basic <\/span>taste(\u5473\u89c9).<\/strong> <\/span>Not o<\/em>nly does ittaste(\u5c1d\u8d77\u6765)<\/strong> <\/span>different from the other five, it also cannot be achieved by <\/span>mixing(\u6df7\u5408)<\/strong> <\/span>other tastes.

The <\/span>discovery(\u53d1\u73b0)<\/strong> <\/span>of the fat taste may lead to <\/span>a revolution of food(\u98df\u54c1\u9769\u547d).<\/strong> <\/span>Maybe in the future, fat will be <\/span>extracted(\u63d0\u70bc)<\/strong> <\/span>as a food material, andcucumbers(\u9ec4\u74dc)<\/strong> <\/span>that taste like <\/span>roast beef(\u70e4\u725b\u8089)<\/strong>will be produced.<\/p>\n
