I don't like curries and haven't done that ^, but you seem to misunderstand - even if you did burn up all of your tastebuds, as long as you have your sense of smell, you can still taste like 90% of food & drink using your sense of smell - curries are one thing in particular that you practially don't use your tastebuds at all for! - it is your sense of smell that mainly detects the taste of a curry!
I'd say sight/touch. cause I'm already half death and I'm missing a good part of my taste buds from one of the ear surgerys they went threw one of the nerves. lol
i herd that lol I would like Sight please so i can see what its truely like. and i can't do without touch it would make life difficult without it.
Talking about senses, this woman has lost most of hers due to her illness, real shame. http://thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article852585.ece
People keep saying "as long as you have your sense of smell, you can pretty much taste anything" - then you pick touch and sight. You don't have smell OR taste now!!! So...why say "as long as you have smell" because it's only two senses.
