How can bad food still taste bad when you cant taste?

Or vice versa. How can good food still taste good when you cant taste?

I pondered these questions yesterday when I grabbed a tub of what I thought was vanilla yogurt, but eventually, through the magic of my brain, I found out it was plain. Now, I didn’t find out through taste, because I was sick. I just somehow magically knew! If someone has the answer, leave a comment, because I’m quite confused as to how that plain yogart “tasted” horrible when I couldn’t taste it at all.

I also had one of these today from Donair Town :

I couldn’t taste it, but it was just as amazing and satisfying as ever.

    They’re called tastebuds. lol. Being sick just makes you not be able to smell, which is most of the pleasure we get of food.
