what is flavor?
Flavor refers to a lot more than simply what something tastes like. Flavor is the entire range of sensations that we perceive when we eat a food or drink a beverage. Flavor encompasses a substanceâs taste, smell, and any physical traits we perceive in our mouths, such as heat (for example, cinnamon) or cold (for example, spearmint). But flavor is even more than that.
