People without an inner voice have poorer verbal memory
humanities.ku.dk
The vast majority of people have an ongoing conversation with themselves, an inner voice, that plays an important role in their daily lives. But between 5-10 per cent of the population do not have the same experience of an inner voice, and they find it more difficult to perform certain verbal memory tasks, new research shows.

    Taste is an interesting one.

    I can’t say I can truly taste at will but I can remember the experience of tasting something well enough to be able to “visualize” what taste I am craving, sometimes by imagining different tastes one by one until I find the right one. I’m not really tasting them but sort of replaying the experience of tasting them which is enough for me to understand the taste.

    But it’s more like my brain describing it to me than actual taste. It’s weird.
