I can taste pesticides. Really. It tastes very similar to the smell I remember of my dad spraying our fruit trees.
(And don't ask me how I can link tastes and smells; I just can. Actually I think tastes/smells are linked for a lot of people). Then I get very nauseated after I have eaten something that tastes like pesticides. I can especially taste pesticides on non-organic strawberries and broccoli. Today I just ate a seriously pesticide-laden peach. (Bought at the store, so I didn't actually SEE anyone spraying pesticides on it, but I could taste it.)
I'm very sensitive when it comes to tastes/textures/smells--what my dh would call "picky." (And that sensitivity does make it hard to eat, sometimes.)
So...........anyone else? Or am I really strange, like a human canary? (You know, the birds used to detect carbon monoxide in mines).
And........I think I've just seriously convinced myself to go more organic. ($$$$$$$$$$$, but worth it!)
