It's true most taste buds are on your tongue, but there are also taste cells in the back of your throat, on your epiglottis , your nose and sinuses, all the way down the throat to the upper part of the esophagus

Taste burds are situated in the nose - false
Explanation:
- Taste buds can be found all across the oral epithelium, although the majority are on the tongue. Taste buds can be found on the anterior tongue at the apex of fungiform papillae and on the posterior tongue along the trench walls of foliate and circumvallate papillae.
- Because the nose and mouth are connected by the same airway, you can taste and smell things simultaneously. Their taste buds can detect salty, sweet, bitter, sour, and savoury (umami) flavours, but when combined with their sense of smell, they can detect a wide range of other 'tastes.'
