The Bitter Taste

My food review on human tears (and other things somehow related). I'm going to discuss the taste of the tears I am currently crying from stress about having to do this food review. I would rate the taste honestly terrible, the salty taste is a bit too overwhelming and is not the most scrumptious of things. The tears which should quench your thirst (being mostly water and all), in fact do the opposite. Instead they make you thirstier and make you contemplate why you are drinking your tears in the first place. The watery taste isn't a normal taste that you normally get from drinking water, the sodium is too high to actually taste the regular water taste, and if you're a true water drinker you'll know, 1: all water tastes different, and 2: extremely salty water that is filled with sodium is disgusting and usually unhealthy for your body. Now most tears can actually be delicious with less salt. In healthy mammal eyes, the cornea is always kept moist and nourished by basal tears. (AKA: Basal tears have more healing properties, and are not based on pain for physical and emotional properties.) Anyways tear fluids contain ingredients such as mucin, lipids, lysozyme, lactoferrin, lipocalin, lacritin, immunoglobulins, glucose, urea, sodium, potassium and water.

Now since there's potassium in tears, you should know that potassium is an important mineral in your body. It functions as an electrolyte, (which is very important, considering they carry electrical energy necessary for many of your body's functions. They help contractions and transmissions of your nerve impulses.). Potassium can also be found in many good foods for the body, such as bananas which are delicious and nutritious. In fact, bananas do not need anything added to them for them to taste delicious, but if you wanted to, you could add something like ice cream (which would make them less nutritious but a nice daily treat). You can also eat dry banana chips which are very popular. Sometimes with added salt to them, banana chips with their sweet and salty combo taste amazing to your taste buds. Bananas are not only a delicious treat, they're the perfect snack, (especially when cut) while not being too moist, they are also not too dry. You can put bananas in different foods as well which will complement the meal. Like a scrumptious and colorful fruit salad, that will delight and excite your taste buds. Or cereal, instead of lots of added sugar, you can add banana slices which will make it sweeter, and the taste of bananas in milk is majorly delicious. The sweet delight of the banana while also being moistened by the milk and making it one hundred times better than the banana already is.

But bananas aren't the only healthy and delicious food that has potassium in it. Broccoli also has potassium, broccoli is good in many ways, cooked and uncooked. Cooked broccoli tastes good alone, but even better if you add a bit of butter onto it. Not too much to completely over take the organic and regular taste of the broccoli. Now uncooked broccoli is a nice raw natural taste. With the satisfying crunch it makes when you bite into it, you won't be disappointed. Raw broccoli can easily be eaten without anything with it, though it tastes really good with ranch or dressing. Many other delicious, organic and healthy foods also have potassium. Other foods such as oranges, cantaloupe, honeydew, apricots, grapefruit, (certain dried fruits), and all of these foods are very delicious on their own, or with something maybe to the side. They are all very natural and sweet on their own. This just shows that tears are technically not unhealthy for you, in fact they have things that are good for your body besides potassium, like certain amounts of glucose and sodium.
