PTC / PROP Taste Instructions

1. Use only one piece of the PTC paper
2. Place whole paper on your tongue
3. Try to reach fairly far back on your tongue
4. Let it sit on your tongue for at least 20 seconds
5. Take note of the intensity of the taste response
6. Extreme bitterness indicates super-taster
7. Tolerable to moderate bitterness indicates normal status
8. No taste, or wet paper, indicated non-taster status

To remove the bitter taste try a small amount of salt.
