Bet you it is, since most people are simply unawarw of the things they should be smelling for, and since many people don’t cook their own food they have no confidence in their abilities.
Seems a little weird to assume diminished sense of smell based on their comment comparing their sense to that of an electronic device tailor made for smelling…
I believe you had good intentions. And maybe I brought my own baggage to this thread.
Anyway, I said what I did because it can be frustrating for folks with disabilities to be told things like “I believe in you”. These well-intentioned responses indicate that you don’t believe their disability is real.
Also my own nose can, although that came free with my body. How much will this cost me?
This is for everyone whose factory included nose stopped working after the warranty ran out.
And not all are covid related. I know at least one person who couldn’t smell because of a brain injury, years before covid19 came around.
Interesting, that must suck sometimes.
My smeller isn’t that sensitive.
Bet you it is, if you just know what to smell for. 👃❤️
Bet you it isn’t, since they just told us they have a diminished sense of smell

Does practice cooking improve your ability to smell when food has gone bad? It seems like an instinctual hardwired thing to me.
I didn’t interpret their comment to mean that their nose is not as sensitive as the electronic sensor, I read it as “my nose isn’t very sensitive”.
Sometimes people say they can’t do things just because of lack of experience. Maybe they just think it is.
Just trying to be hopeful. 🫶

If you tell me you have a disability, I believe you. I didn’t see them say that outright. It was very open to interpretation. 🙂
