Year 5 Blind Taste Testing

Year 5 Blind Taste Testing - Year 5 Blind Taste Testing

"Today all of Year 5 did a Blind Taste Testing. This was part of our Healthy Habits Topic. The first group ate: Beetroot, Celery, Blueberry and Mint! The second group ate (me as well): Beans, Green Pepper, Pineapple and Coriander! The third group ate: Red Pepper, Cauliflower, Lychee, Basil! And the last group ate: Fennel, Bamboo, Figs and Kumquat! My favourites were Lychee and Pineapple! I didn’t really like Coriander, Cauliflower and Beans! My score was 3/4! I TRIED EVERYTHING, EVEN RED PEPPER, I thought I didn’t like it, but now I do!" (Dorka 5N) 
 
"My favorite 🤩 was 100% the pineapple although the worst was DEFINITELY the celery, actually I can still feel it in my mouth! I discovered that I loved pineapple 🍍 100 x more than I thought. At the very end Mr Russell came and he tried some of the hardest ones and we crowned him as the king 👑 of Blind taste testing!" (Bernat 5N)
