Ive never been able to explain it to people. I don’t quite understand it myself. But the analogy is accurate and I agree
Comment on Believe It Or Not, Black Licorice

I never used to like it. Then I got COVID. My taste and smell died and were resurrected one Easter morning, but all weird-like. Now I love black liquorice. Tastes like eating a tire but in a good way.

Right, like I can’t explain the flavours I am accustomed to. And I can’t even explain the new one (neither before nor after). But like… good hell/bad hell? I’m going with good hell.

Yeah there’s definitely an element to the flavor that seems like something artificial that you aren’t supposed to eat… like you plucked a piece of rubber off of something and put it in your mouth lmao

Ask?

is your taste and smell different in any other way? or is it just black liquorice that transformed from disgusting to beloved?
has the flavour of liquorice changed for you? or is the flavour the same but you now enjoy it?
how many tires have you eaten and what does it mean that something tastes like a tire in a good way???

Smell changed way more than taste. Most things now just smell like alien farts.
The flavour has changed for me. I adore Jägermeister now, too. Actually I enjoy a lot of “herbal” flavours since.
I know the smell of burning rubber from the before time. I kind of imagine this new flavour like biting into a soft and chewy that. Plus flower petals or whatever.
