so another crazy thing happened to me recently it was a sunday morning and i fried eggs for breakfast but something was definitely wrong i wasn't sure if it was the eggs or me though now you've tried fried eggs right they normally taste like you know eggs but that time along with the eggs i could also taste lemon vanilla yogurt and even some paper and it's not as good as you might think yogurt tastes nice by itself but together with eggs it's gross whatever was the reason i decided i'd be okay with just a tea for that day but as soon as i tried it i spat it out what is that did i put a spoonful of black pepper there i needed some water asap i got a glass and thankfully it was just a regular glass of water i tried to eat some strawberries but along with the normal strawberry taste they had a taste of hot chili that's not a good combination to be honest it looked like something happened to all of the food in the house i also had an orange juice so i drank a glass of it surprisingly it tasted totally fine suddenly i got a weird thought do i taste colors it was so crazy and strange that i needed to check this theory immediately i admit i licked the white back of my cell phone but it really did taste like vanilla yogurt just like the egg so it was true i could taste colors that would mix with every foods original taste and mess it up i wanted to go to the doctor but although this new superpower was weird it was still a bit exciting also i couldn't wait to figure out what other tastes are like so i went to a store and got myself a pack of markers i got to the table opened the yellow one and licked it it did taste like lemon so i licked each one and made a list pink tasted like strawberry red was chili orange wasn't orange blue was very bitter light blue was salty and violet was blueberry black was black pepper beige nutmus gray paper and green tasted like puke well i had to conclude i don't eat green food from now on not that i was really sad about it though only one color was left the brown one i was very reluctant to try it but i had to figure it out to my relief it had the taste of coffee now i don't like coffee but it could be worse i knew i had to go see my doctor but i kind of wanted to live with this superpower for a while it doesn't happen to you every day you know so i decided i'll go to the doctor tomorrow and today i had to learn how to live with this ability i had to avoid putting in my mouth anything black gray blue and green not only food but the dishes and cutlery as well and i had to figure out what food i can actually eat because i didn't like strawberries that tasted like chili pepper so i went to the store to get some transparent dishes while walking i was thinking about my menu for today orange juice works strawberry vanilla and lemon yogurt too i can make a fruit salad with mango raspberries grapes banana and yogurt but that was all i could come up with as i was thinking i was biting my lip and found out it tasted like strawberry in the store it was pretty easy to find a transparent bowl but spoons and forks were a problem i think i went to every store in my city until i could finally find them as soon as i got back home i cut all the fruits and made a fruit salad i hadn't eaten much that morning as you remember honestly it was the best salad ever i saved some money because i didn't have to buy berries oranges and lemons but the taste was there as i was enjoying my meal the phone rang it was my grandma and she invited me for dinner that evening i tried to say i couldn't make it but she wouldn't listen grandmas you know it's just impossible to skip when they want to feed you so she said she didn't want to hear any excuses and that i had to be at her house by six this man i couldn't wait until tomorrow i had to go to the doctor right then and get rid of this superpower before my grandma made me eat puke and drink tea with black pepper i checked the time i had only 20 minutes before my doctor left and the clinic was several blocks away i finished my salad and ran out of the apartment i got to the clinic just five minutes before a close for the day and asked if my doctor could see me because i had an emergency to my relief he agreed when i told him that i could taste colors he looked at me puzzled and probably thought it was a stupid prank then i told him the whole story about the fried egg for breakfast and how i bought and tasted all the markers that violet was blueberry and green was not an apple as he might have thought that i spent hours trying to find a transparent spoon and fork to be honest in my head it sounded better and was making much more sense the doctor was silent and kind of suspicious he measured my temperature my blood pressure and looked at my mouth so you've been eating markers he smiled oops i guess my tongue was the color of a rainbow well that really doesn't sound normal for a grown-up the doctor obviously didn't believe me so he just let me go recommending a good night's sleep so i guess i was stuck with it and i had to go to grandma's unfortunately there was no way she'd feed me strawberry yogurt for dinner i got home to get my new cutlery so at least i didn't have to taste paper when eating with my grandma's gray metal fork i had another couple of hours so i did some googling but still couldn't find any solution or even research on my condition i thought that maybe i could wash it off so i drank a gallon of water but it didn't help so i went to grandma's place feeling doomed plus i really needed to go she was happy to see me and announced that she had my favorite broccoli pancakes for me yeah maybe yesterday they had been my favorite but definitely not anymore i tried to say i'm not hungry and i could just drink some orange juice but of course she wouldn't listen she gave me a plate with five pancakes and a cup of black tea suddenly i got an idea of how i could get rid of at least the pepper taste if i put a piece of lemon in the tea i'll get brown therefore i'll have a coffee tea instead of a pepper tea i was lucky my grandma did have the lemon so the tea problem was solved but the worst part was the pancakes and my grandma was looking at me all excited and pleased i had to eat i was trying hard to control my facial expression and look very happy as if i was eating the best food on the planet even though it was the most terrible meal in my life and yes i was drinking a lot of my coffee tea well three cups but when i finished and thank my grandma she was so happy that i understood eating puke was worth it turned out my grandma actually had a vanilla yogurt so i ate all she had to get rid of the taste i still had in my mouth after the pancakes on my way home biting my strawberry lip i was thinking i had to come up with a plan on how to get rid of this ability but i couldn't think of anything so as soon as i got home i just went to sleep even though it was only 9 pm i slept for 11 hours and the next morning i made myself a fruit salad with yogurt again i guess from then on it was my dish for the rest of my life i was eating it with my transparent fork and watching a tv show when i suddenly realized i couldn't taste any lemon there and no orange as well i bit my lip and it didn't have a taste anymore with my hand shaking i opened the fridge to get my strawberries i ate one and it tasted like a regular normal strawberry no chili pepper everything was back to normal like it never happened but i swear it did really
