Talk:Zesty Gourmand/@comment-25559529-20160616134945

After watching a certain episode of Royal Pains, I thought of this idea: Maybe Zesty is a supertaster? Having more taste buds than normal, she would experience taste more strongly, and as a result, she would favor food with less intensity, which is where her "subtle taste, the barest hint of a sensation" nonsense is coming from. But when you take away the flavor of food that doesn't trigger ponies without sensitive tongues, you get bland stuff. Zesty might not know about tongues that aren't as sensitive as hers.
