I had covid last year (March 2020) with 9months of anosmia.
When my sense of taste and smell came back at Christmas it was great except
- Onions smell and taste like the most rancid smelling kebab or flesh you can imagine - even driving down a sea front in the summer made me want to pike because of the burger vans. I used to love onion - adored it. I sadly can’t eat most Indian foods now.
- Garlic stinks but I’m ok with it we’ll cooked out .
- Coffee stinks but still tastes ok
Given the above ……:
Why do Sainsbury onion rings taste nice.
I’ve tried all sorts of onions - red, spring, cooked, raw, hidden - it’s so bad even things like fried chicken and most crisps are vile because of the onion powder
Up a soup - forget it
Virtually all sauces from a jar - taste of rancid onion
But I can eat Sainsbury onion rings and they smell nice
