TEASER! Barb Stuckey: Taste What You're Missing! *V*
Episode 128
Thursday, 4 September, 2025
The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys talk with Barb Stuckey, taste expert, about the difference between taste and flavor. They discuss why you need to contemplate what you eat and use all five senses when you taste. Hear about Barb’s UNfocus tasting group that tested how impairment impacts your perception of food.The Inside TrackThe Guys and Barb discuss analyzing food the way we dissect wine. Barb: We do a lot of critical tasting of wine, yet we don't necessarily do the same of food. I thought that that was pretty odd given that only about 35% of the population in America drinks wine, but a hundred percent of us eat food.Francis: I would like to point out that that's our favorite 35%, but I get your point.Barb Stuckey on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2012BioBarb Stuckey is a leading food developer, taste expert, and author of Taste: Surprising Stories and Science About Why Food Tastes Good.
