taste buds
Lately I've been getting sick at the rate of roughly once every two weeks, so I have been lucky enough to experience several different kinds of cold. This one is special, though. It has selectively shut off some of my taste buds. For example, I can taste that something is beer, but all beers taste exactly alike. I can taste the coffee in my latte, but I can't taste the hazelnut syrup (yes, I am lame and drink hazelnut lattes because I am too weak for plain coffee). I can taste the garlic in garlic cheese, but gruyere tastes like generic sharp cheddar. I can taste the sourness in an orange, but not the sweet part. As someone who loves food and beer and hazelnut lattes, this is serious cause for alarm. I should probably call a doctor and schedule an appointment, but then I would have to talk to someone on the phone, which is also serious cause for alarm. Dear God, what will I do?

You will complain on your blog.
Maybe onions would taste good now.

Unlikely.
