can any one help me understand what happens when a plain soda cracker or a non salty chip is chewed - and after a while before its swollowed. It will slowly taste sweeter. How deos enzyme action cause this effect?
I've never kept a soda cracker in my mouth that long.
Saliva begins the digestive process by converting some carbohydrates to sugar. Not that I chew crackers long enough to notice.
