Jabbi et al. (2007) found that the insula region of the brain responded both to the individual's own experience of pleasant/unpleasant tastes as well as to watching another person drink pleasant/unpleasant drinks. The amygdala is also involved in emotional processing, but in this study, it did not show consistent activation across participants. The tempero-parietal junction and premotor cortex are not typically associated with taste perception or social processing.
