Chillies have a strong, spicy taste that tingle your taste buds.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. that tingles.

Statement: Chillies have a strong, spicy taste that tingle your taste buds.

As the noun 'taste' is in the singular form, so the verb used should also be in its singular form. So, the verb 'tingle' should be replaced by 'tingles.'

Correct statement: Chillies have a strong, spicy taste that tingles your taste buds.
