Scientists aren’t being paid enough, that’s how they found out, right?
From what I understand, you would probably have to pay geologists extra (and I guess archaeologists) to not lick stuff they dig out of the ground.
This conversation would have been with normies.
Other scientists would be like “What type of almond? Also we need peer review!”
Fun fact: the alternative sweetener, aspartame, was also discovered to be sweet when the discoverer licked his finger after lifting the piece of paper contaminated with the substance.
Ah, nothing like doing some proper lab work, then putting your fingies in your mouth.
