Did you have no sense of taste at all? I had to live with almost no sense of smell for about 20 years, but I could taste sweet and salty. So if you put a spoon of sugar in your mouth, there was no sense of sweetness at all? If so, that would really be a next level experience.
- bennyelv 6y agoInterested to know how that happened! I've got a neurological condition (MS) that one time meant that sweet tasted bitter, but only on one side of my tongue. It wasn't a pleasant experience, but thankfully it only lasted a couple of weeks before improving and eventually returning to normal (for now).
- hwillis 6y agoFor me, I could not tell the difference between coffee and water. Energy drinks did not taste at all sweet; they felt slightly syrupy/viscous and I could feel the bubbles on my tongue. I could sense saltiness to some degree, but not in a way I can relate to how I taste things now.
