Tasting is the act of tasting a product (it can be a meal or a drink). Normally, the tasting refers to the selected products: wine, ham, liqueurs. However, there are tastings that are not of select products: potato tortillas also known as potatoes, water or oil.
It is that the tongue has the ability to recognize different flavors, but this ability is complemented by that of smell. In some cases, tastes can generate a feeling of immediate rejection, without human intervention in this regard; This occurs especially in those that are excessively acidic, a circumstance that could mean some type of chemical harmful to the body. As we can see, the body is a work of incredible perfection, these responses have the main purpose of protecting themselves. On the contrary, those flavors that generate pleasure and attraction generally have nutrients that contribute to the body.
The tasting can be done by an individual who has been invited to an event promoting a product. In it, guests take a small amount of what is promoted. These are social events, with an obvious advertising component, with the media, and ultimately with a business sense. It is a very widespread marketing strategy, because the tasting becomes a very participatory event. Whoever tries a product, comments on its characteristics and there are different evaluations of its quality.
In some cases, the tasting can also be done for the purpose of promoting a product or conducting a market study. In the first case, the food or drink is savored to different potential consumers so that they are aware of it and its taste; This circumstance takes place once this food or drink has already been released. In the second case, it is a question of knowing if the drink or the food will be accepted by people. Therefore, a group of individuals is evaluated and conducted to complete surveys, so that a notion of the reactions that are elicited can be taken.
