1931 A. F. Blakeslee & M. R. Salmon in Eugenical News July 107/1 Table 2 includes in addition those who were tested only with the crystals... It will be seen that between one quarter and one third of this sample were non-tasters.

1958 Jrnl. Royal Anthropol. Inst. 88 120 This proportion of tasters and non-tasters is actually very much the same as in our own population.

1984 Time Mag. (Nexis) 4 June 74 People who perceive PTC/PROP mildly are likely to be heterozygous... Non-tasters of these bitter stimuli have two recessive genes.

1995 Independent on Sunday 16 Apr. (Review Suppl.) 56/1 ‘Non-tasters’—have very few taste buds and have only dull sensations of basic tastes.

2002 Consumers' Res. Mag. (Nexis) 1 Jan. 26 One individual may be a ‘supertaster’, with a genetically determined dislike for bitter compounds in many vegetables, while ‘regular’ or ‘non-tasters’ will tolerate the bitterness at a lower perception level.
