No need to apologise. I don't know if I taste things the same way others do (no way to really compare), but I've determined that there must be a correlation, because I chose foods I like and dislike based almost entirely on their appearance and the way they feel.
So I take the sensory input I can get and try to be content with it.
I never really thought about scent based memory, but my memory of things in the distant past is really sort of a blur. I have a few distinct and sharp memories of my childhood, but for the most part there's not much there.
I wonder if scent is more important to memory than we realize.
