If
you lose some or all of your sense of taste, there are things you
can do to make your food taste better:
-
Prepare foods with a variety of colors and textures
-
Use aromatic herbs and hot spices to add more flavor; however,
avoid adding more sugar or salt to foods
-
If your diet permits, add small amounts of cheese, bacon bits, or
butter on vegetables, as well as olive oil or toasted nuts
-
Avoid combination dishes, such as casseroles, that can hide
individual flavors and dilute taste
