Martino and Marks (2001) introduced their semantic coding theory (see also Walker et al., 2012, for another account of com- mon dimensions and connotative meaning) which states that high level mechanisms that connect information across the senses may evolve from developmental experiences with various percepts that are coded into language, which later affects multiple levels of information processing. One possibility here is that an early sensitivity to different associations between sensory information (e.g., Walker et al., 2014) shapes a suprasensory network of mean- ing (see also Walker, 2012; Woods, Spence, Butcher, & Deroy, 2013). Perhaps, both shapes and tastes are categorized along a (lin- guistically-related) hedonic dimension, which may explain the way in which people match them.
