I don't think it is a set number; I think it varies between children?

Your baby already has a developed sense of taste. In fact, newborns seem to havemore taste buds than adults do. Sensitivity to sweet and bitter tastes is present at birth, but reactions to salty foods don't come until about 5 months.
