Anyone else's sense of taste stronger?

My sense of taste seems to have gotten stronger for most foods especially sweet things.  There are a few things that I really don't like anymore since they taste so sweet to me.  Now I don't want to eat maple syrup oatmeal and a pork BBQ that we usually get.  Then tonight  I went out to dinner and I had a sweet potato with cinnamon and honey butter and I bearly ate any of it because it was so sweet...I even took off most of the honey butter.  Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

    My sense of taste is much stronger when it comes to salty foods. Foods such as chips and soy sauce I can't really tolerate anymore because now they taste extremely salty.

    I'm in the same boat. I could hardly get through my peanut butter and jelly sandwich today because the grape jelly was just too sweet to me. Such a bummer.

    I thought it was all in my head. I've never had a sense of smell (deviated septum 1% and 5% airflow until I was 16, then had a surgery so I'm just over 50% in each) and now I can smell EVERYTHING.

    Yep!  I usually love mayonnaise but it just tastes too salty for me now.  I've also noticed that our water tastes really chlorine-y.  bleh.

    For me everything just tastes weird, I choke it down as quickly as possible so I don't have to smell it cuz my sense of smell is like a bloodhound now.

    i've actually experienced the opposite. my sense of smell has heightened but my sense of taste has gone way done. i have to make everything way spicy in order to taste anything at all. otherwise it tastes bland like i'm eating cardboard.
