Swimming tongue

Bundaberg Red laments the refined taste buds of catfish.

[iframe_youtube video=”ATuN5RABJk8″]

Did you know a catfish is essentially a “swimming tongue?” Well, considering they boast 18 times more taste buds than people, that’s exactly how Australian rum brand Bundaberg Red wants you to think about them. And isn’t it tragic how all those food receptors are wasted on dredge at the bottom of lakes and rivers, while us humans trudge through life lacking the capacity to truly enjoy all the wonderful food we’re surrounded by. Life is unfair. Get over it. And drink rum.
