which is worse, for EVERYTHING to be COLORLESS or TASTELESS?

Answer 1

Do you really have to pick one or the other? In all honesty, I think both are equally awful. Think about it. There's a reason Skittles say "Taste the rainbow"...it's not simply advertising and it applies to more than just candy. Doesn't an orange burst in your mouth like a golden yellow ray of sunshine? Looking at a beautiful, pastel colored sky can leave a cotton candy taste in your mouth. A red and gold leaf can leave our mouths watering for a crisp apple; and likewise, a taste of hot chocolate makes me think of the color white...as in white, fluffy marshmallows or powdery snow.

These senses go hand in hand, along with smell...all interconnected, interworking and intertwined for a reason. I think losing any one of them would be torture.

Answer 2

I can take everything being colorless because I'll still see the world the same way I've seen it all my life. However, if the world was tasteless, there would be nothing worth enjoying in the colorless world. The world would be too bland. A tasteless world would be worse.

Answer 3

Oh, what a question! If I think about peas, colorless is worse. Chocolate milk shake, tasteless is worse.

If it's just everything FOOD, I guess being tasteless is generally worse. If it's really EVERY THING, colorlessness would be.

Answer 4

Tasteless

Answer 5

Tasteless.

Answer 6

tasteless would be the worst , cant imagine how it would be not to taste example: i think smelling would have a part in be tasteless also, tasteless can also mean have no cooth about things or being just plain ignorant acting. colors do affect moods but taste plays a major part in a lot of other things

Answer 7

Of course, all the answers refer to subjective preferences, as will mine. I LOVE food, & I love to cook. Much of the pleasure in cooking is the colours, the textures. Also, the taste, but I could do far more easily without taste, than colour. Taste is ONLY in eating, colour is the whole world. Someone said, it's like air & water?? Not so. We need air & water to survive, but we do not "need" taste, (although I'd really miss it!)! Also as I recall, something about--you can live life without visual, but not without food? Your question didn't ask the choice of not to EAT! I'm certain that the blind have heightened "other" senses, but that WAS NOT YOUR QUESTION. I'm a painter, & very visual. But that has very little to do with my choice. Just to think about it. How much time does one spend eating, & how much time SEEING? How many other senses are evoked by seeing? You presented a choice, not an ideal. Colourless would be worse!

Edit: shahbarak my friend, how could you cook if you couldn't see the pink in your grilled steak, the golden brown of roasted or grilled vegetables--done just right? The colour of a "perfect" eggplant? I may be a rare bird; I don't taste as I go along, but it works--I know when people gobble it up & ask for seconds. Much of the joy of eating is also in the way it looks??

Answer 8

For everything to be colorless, because the eyes are the window to your soul. While you eat only a few times a day, you are seeing for the most part of your life.

Answer 9

Tasteless. I had a viral infection that robbed me of my sense of taste for almost a month, and I'd rather go through life in black and white than have everything be without flavor.

Answer 10

colorless. at least if its tasteless, there wouldnt be as much obesity in the country. it would be a great diet control plan.
