Chickens don't have taste buds, do they?

When I were a lad, mum kept chickens but they kept laying eggs and then
promptly eating them. Non-one really knew why, but mum decided she
would "put them off" by filling eggshells with English Mustard and
giving those the the chickens to eat instead. And they did -
absolutely loved them!
