Any kind of Yasai?

How about Aoziru?
I like it.
You like it.

But like, I don't know, like sodas, you know, like carbonated drinks.

Everyone does, right?
Uh, I guess, so like, no?
Nothing?
But you know, she sent us a letter.
Yeah, of course.
We need to answer something.
09:01
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um, I have a fun fact.
Okay.
I have a fun fact, right?
I heard that, you know, when you grow older, you can, you start to enjoy like different
types of foods, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like what she's asking, right?
The reason is, because that your taste buds are dying.
That's why.
So you can't feel the original taste.
So like when you're young, like all of your taste buds were alive.
They were there, right?
So like when you tasted something, you have the ability to taste what you didn't like.
So you hated it.
But as you grow older, those taste buds die.
And when you take in the same food, the buds that tasted that things that you didn't like,
they died.
So you don't taste the nasty part.
You don't taste the disgusting part.
And you just start feeling like, oh, this is good.
Really?
I, that's what I heard.
Wow.
I didn't search it up, but yeah.
I thought that was interesting.
Yeah.
So like that's why as we grow older and older, we get to eat more things.
We can enjoy more food.
Yeah.
We can eat so many little powerful foods.
Yeah.
As we get older and get used to those.
It's just that we're, in reality, we're just not tasting it.
That's all.
Wow.
Pretty interesting, right?
Wow.
No, I thought it's just growing.
My Mikaku grows so that I can understand the depth, but it's not.
It's actually no.
It's like you're not tasting it.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
I can think about anything.
Yeah.
So a lot of things, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So many things.
Right.
But it's tough.
I think we made it through.
We did a good job.
Yeah.
Did a good job.
We did.
Yeah.
This is the number four ranked episode.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes, Yamachan.
Yes.
