Penn and Teller should do a show on how taste tests are useless when trying to prove taste since taste is 100% subjective. Why would what strangers think about a taste have anything to do with anybody else?

I like pizza but if a taste test showed that pizza tastes terrible, should I figure I was wrong all these years and stop eating pizza?

Taste tests are used pretty much exclusively for marketing purposes. That's the irony of that video.
