Do our mouths have litmus paper?

No, because we'd need eyes in our mouths to see the colour change.

We can detect acids, though. I'm not sure whether we can distinguish 
them from alkalis, though. I'll have to try licking some caustic soda.

Of course we can detect both, just don't do it with any strong ones.
I can certainly detect and distinguish between citric, oxalic, acetic, 
hydrochloric , tartaric and formic acid.

The inorganic acids apart from weak hydrochloric are too dangerous to 
taste , but who of us hasn't licked a stinging hand and got a taste of 
battery (sulphuric) acid?

Same with alkalis - one can smell the chlorine in bleach and smell 
caustic soda. Enough not to taste it anyway.

Or you claim you can. You might have trouble separating analytical grade reagents. Mostly what people detect are the usual volatile impurities.

Mouth sensation might be closer to the mark.

Chlorine attacks the sensors in the nose. You aren't smelling anything that makes it alkaline.

Pure sodium hydroxide dissolved in water doesn't have any vapour phase component at all.

One has to wonder what you are smelling above the crap you get sold as caustic soda.

Acids are sour.  Bases are bitter.

The thing that separates sentient human civilization from primitive
forms of life is the presence of tater tots.

I would have said they were rather an indication of it, like deep fried 
Mars Bars.
PS, they are in fact 'croquettes'

You said it.  Nothing higher than a slime mold will eat them. ;)

(They taste just like Pringles, but don't get me started--bet I can't 
diss just one.) ;)

Mo's favorite meal, which I dutifully prepare to save our marriage, is
fried shrimp on Hawaiian buns with tater tots. Gotta admit it's pretty
good.

OreIda of course.

You mean a variation on Portuguese sweet bread?  Wasn't King's Hawaiian

We like the Kings buns. Who sued them? Is it illegal to sell Philly
Cheesesteaks or New York style pizza? Kentucky Fried Chicken? Boston
Market?

Looks like some judge tossed the silly Kings suit. It was probably a
greedy lawyer.

Good grief! Is there really no off topic idiotic shit that you will not
blather about, you pathological senile chatterbox?

Yet more of the abnormal senile gossiping by the resident senile gossip:
"I never understood how they made a living but the space where the local 
party store was is now up for lease. It probably was more than helium. I 
often walk over the the adjacent market to get something for dinner and 
people stuffing balloons in their cars was a common sight. No more. I've 
no idea if there is another store in town."

And there was me thinking Hawaiian Buns were sliced breasts off dusky 
buxom pacific islanders...,
