No...

Explanation:

Bases have a bitter and soapy taste. Of course you will NOT seek confirmation of this. The most basic thing we eat is quite probably egg-white, which has #pH=8-9#. On the other hand, acidic foods, oranges, lemon, vinegar, tend to taste sharp and full of flavour, and good to eat.
