That's the sucky thing about being sick. You can't taste anything. Well to be accurate, you can't smell anything. I was listening to NPR one day and there was a piece on how what most people think is taste is really smell when it comes to eating food. Something about how your taste buds taste sour and sweet and not actual flavor which is more related to sense of smell. So I miss smelling.
I made what I think was a tasty sandwich for dinner tonight, but I could hardly taste anything. It was a chicken breast from a Costco rotisserie chicken, avocado, red onion, lettuce, mayo, and pesto on a bun. It sounds amazing, but all I could taste was maybe a little bit of the red onion. It looked really good. Maybe I'll make another one when I get better and see if my eyes didn't lie to me.
