Would you rather....?

I'd rather lose the ability to smell, by far.

The only huge downside of that is you'd be unaware of your own body odor. That would suck.

not be able to taste. A large part of what we call taste is really smell - a smell can make your mouth water but a taste can't, or at least I'm pretty sure it can't.

and we use our sense of smell all the time, whereas sense of taste is only used when eating. not to be able to sniff a rose, or fresh cut grass, or the ground after rain????

Not be able to smell things, BUT I thought if you couldn't smell you couldn't taste either?

Not smell. I like to taste things so i know how it is

Because not all things smell bad...think about the good aromas and smells

it's tough either way though :)

Not be able to smell. If you couldn't taste the world would be a sad place. too much yummy food !
