%0 Journal Article %J Organon F %D 2017 %T Using “not tasty” at the Dinner Table %A Davies, Alex %K MacFarlane %K objectivism %K predicates of personal taste %K relativism %K sociology %X John MacFarlane argues against objectivism about “tasty”/“not tasty” in the following way. If objectivism were true then, given that speakers use “tasty”/“not tasty” in accordance with a rule, TP, speakers would be using an evidently unreliable method to form judgements and make claims about what is tasty. Since this is implausible, objectivism must be false. In this paper, I describe a context in which speakers deviate from TP. I argue that MacFarlane’s argument against objectivism fails when applied to uses of “not tasty” within this context. So objectivism about “not tasty” is still a viable position within this context. %B Organon F %V 24 %P 405-426 %G English %U http://www.klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/doc/organon/2017/3/405-426.pdf %9 State %2 Articles %3 405426
