    Just Wait! That is all you can do. As your congestion subsides so will your ablity to taste increase. Just be patient.

    You can't taste because you can't smell. Nothing you can do about it but wait for the cold to go away.

    I quit smoking 3 weeks ago, I'm unable to taste or distinguish one food from the other.

    Is this part of the cleansing period of not smoking.
