Yes, birds can taste food. Birds have taste buds located on their tongues, just like humans do. However, the number and distribution of taste buds can vary among bird species. Birds are able to detect different taste sensations such as sweet, sour, salty, and bitter, which help them determine whether a food is suitable for consumption.
