Food tasting funny

Hello all, I just wondered if anyone has had their food start to taste weird? Had my usual latte today and it tasted so weird and just had peanut M&M's and they don't taste as nice as they used to. I am very congested and not sure if that is why.

So bizarre!

Was the complete opposite for me debsmcphee - everything and I mean everything tastes so much better since I quit 17 months ago, can taste everything now and all the tastes of spices, sweet, sour etc that were masked with smoking, alot do tend to experience the same - sense of smell is so much better now too, mostly pleasant but there is the unpleasant ones too!! :O

Would say it is because you are congested as was the same and could taste nothing when I had my flu a few weeks ago.,,,

Hi Roisin, thanks. I think you are right. I am bunged up and probably getting the cold. Things taste ok again this morning so fingers crossed it will improve soon. Day 12 and counting! This forum is a great help, thanks for all your messages x

Its funny that you say that...last night i went to my favorite restaurant and ordered my fave meal. I couldnt eat it, it tasted terrible ! My kids say that i have to try foods all over again to see if i like them lol. Strange.
