WTF why haven’t I seen more videos like this? This is a god damn super power!

I was making dinner -- nothing complicated, just noodles with some herbs -- and they tasted off. I thought I fucked something up. The next day I had the same meal and it tasted off again. Weird, I thought. The next day I was cleaning my laptop with isopropyl alcohol and I realized I couldn't smell the alcohol. I thought maybe something was wrong with it. So I tried smelling soap. Nope. Toothpaste? Nope. My smell was gone entirely by the next day. Not even the faintest hint of anything. But I wasn't even congested. Then my taste went downhill until that was entirely gone too. Let me tell you: it feels like you've been robbed of something. I was incredibly depressed by the thought that I might be left this way, never tasting or smelling anything ever again. What got me most was just... air. I stepped outside and inhaled and... nothing. I just wanted to smell the air.

Luckily they both came back 99% within 2 weeks. Now, a year later, certain things still taste off to me. Whole grains taste like mould. Bell peppers taste like sewage.
