Everytime I drink water recently, filtered or bottled, it always tastes like an alka-seltzer has been put in it. You know that really sour salty taste.

Does anyone know why....Is it an indication that I eat too much Salt? cause I dont think I eat hardly any.

"Manipulating the tongue's temperature can result in the same salty, sweet or sour taste caused by sugars, acids or other chemicals, according to a Yale study that furthers understanding of the physiology of taste."
Have you got a fever?
