    “Hyperbolic” this, “logarithmic” that, I’m here to propose a radical new theory: all spheres are tasty, your mouth just isn’t big enough to have the right tastebuds for the larger ones

    Ice bergs. They are kinda round (less so with larger ones) and they are freshwater so entirely edible. According to the graph the object would taste “ok” which is a perfectly adequate description of drinking water.
