Cycles of the Tongue, II

How red does your mouth get when you drink a red wine? By mouth, I mean teeth and lips, but mostly I'm talking about the tongue. Different people range the gamut of redness. Some people seem to have a natural tannin-resistant coating over their mouth. You can hardly tell they have been drinking a red.

But for others, like me, their mouths seem to be one red color concentrator. After a glass, our red stained mouths look like we're trying out for a horror movie. And our tongues are a dark purple. Oh the humanity. And in an informal poll, I don't think I've met anybody whose mouth stains more than mine. I guess everybody has to be the best at something.
