- cantSpellSober 4y agoLosing our sense of smell is actually somewhat dangerous and more common than you think (can be lost temporarily due to illness). So we install smoke detectors and put expiration dates on things to detect danger without smell.
- thrown_22 4y agoYeah but how do you encode the smell of a rose to someone without a nose? You're being incredibly discriminatory by only giving the smelless a warning and nothing else.
- cantSpellSober 4y agoGreat question! People with a typical sense of smell get to experience the smell of expired food already, adding expiration dates for who can't is inclusive, not ex.
- thrown_22 4y agoThat's not the question I asked.
