that is a stupid question...
but appriciate the interest...
my answer is that NO. you cannot taste color... the connections in our brain that dicate that red is cherry, dictate that because there are no cherries that are not RED!
its like asking, can we feel darkness?

I won't dispute your contention per se - but some of the best cherries in the world are Rainier cherries - yellow cherries with at most just a blush of red...I love them!Originally posted by nunechkathe connections in our brain that dicate that red is cherry, dictate that because there are no cherries that are not RED!
anyone know anything about "Van" cherries...I'd never heard of them before - perhaps related to the city/province of Van like Van cats eh? Don't know...anyone?
