Survived the trip to the dentist, so I decided to treat myself to Subway. Got home in one piece, so blood loss, dehydration and local anaesthesia didn't dull my wits too badly.
Get my sandwich and tea, sit down... and the sandwich tastes like grapefruit, and tea tastes like some indeterminate fruit juice.
Evidently, after a little Guugling, this is because different areas of your tongue sense different types of flavor, and half the tastebuds on my tongue are numb. Interesting how something so simple completely changes the texture of your personal reality.
