But it is the silver, at least for all intents and purposes. Actually, there is always a chemical explanation for how a given taste occurs. We percieve the output and say "tastes like ________". Will you say, when informed of the chemical reaction that causes the characteristic flavor of vanilla, "it isn't the vanilla"? Well you could, but it's pretty much pointless... In fact, if you want to be really pedantic there is no sensation anywhere but that which is manufactured in our brains. :)
