I have a question.

[conuly]

An unanswerable question, to be sure, but listen anyway.

I like certain foods. Other people dislike some of the foods I like, while I dislike foods that *they* like. Do the foods I dislike actually taste different to me than they do to the people who like them?

Well, most of the comments are on a few, small, known issues. As to whether most things taste more or less the same or we'll find out that they vary... who knows? Although I do think the taste of things varies by what your body needs, since I know it does for me. Plus, a lot of times when people are sick, they say things taste differently. And I know my mother can detect milk going bad much sooner than I can, and thus needs fresher milk... and I may be talking myself into the other side of it. But really - who knows?
