summer & winter savory (Wikipedia articles link/box)
Wikipedia has articles on these. Is it ok for me to put a "Wikipedia has an article on..." box down there? And could someone please tell me how I do that? :) Thanks very much. --Tyranny Sue 04:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

umami
I believe savory is used to refer to the taste now identified as a "fifth" basic taste, called umami. Perhaps this definition should be added.
