It occurs when a person isn't smelling or tasting any food or drink. It just happens randomly.If you're serious that it literally smelled and tasted like vomit, that's not normal. I'm not saying to go to a doctor and tell them you think you have a brain tumor because apple cider tastes bad. I'm saying to make an appointment with the specialist that treats smell and taste disorders, tell them what you experienced, and let the medical professional take it from there. Smell/taste disorders are a lot more common than you think and there's nothing weird about consulting a doctor about this, particularly if you continue to have similar experiences. --- "Little scratches on people's hearts will be gone if they pat them from behind, but the humans don't know that." -Li'l Cactus 3DS FC: 0619-3174-3155 |

It can sometimes be an indicator of an underlying serious condition, so I would suggest getting an appointment with an ENT to have it checked out. --- "Little scratches on people's hearts will be gone if they pat them from behind, but the humans don't know that." -Li'l Cactus 3DS FC: 0619-3174-3155 |
