Bumps at the back of my tounge

I've discovered these bumps at the back of my tongue. They are the same colour as my tongue. I'm not in not pain what so ever from them. I've just become a little concerned as I don't know what they are. I've been having bad breath recently and was wondering if this is what is causing it.

    Hmmm...yes, yes, decaying bogies. Those are little tombstones in the mucus graveyard. Burial snots, if you will.

    They're meant to be there, don't panic! Something to do with taste buds. I think they're called papille? Papillae?
