How's your sense of taste?
Took me a long time to understand and admit that it is different. My tongue still works. I still pick up sweet, sour, salty, and bitter, so I thought I could taste just fine. But I understand now that it's quite different than a normal person's. Your nasal passages are connected to your mouth and throat (hence the ability for milk to come out of disgusting people's noses), so when you are chewing on something you are actually smelling it even stronger than when it was outside your mouth, but your brain combines it all into what we call taste.
For example, I thought all skittles tasted the same (like sugar). Bananas are just a mushy texture. I don't like overly spicy foods because all I can taste is the chemical reaction, none of the flavor. Same goes for very bitter things, like coffee and alcohol. I've taken tiny sips, but never had a full glass of beer because it just tastes like a big cup of bitterness, and I've never had the urge to get drunk.
Things still taste good or taste bad, it's just different. Perhaps a lower resolution than a normal sense of taste. Actually, color blind is probably a better analogy. I can still see shape and form the same as you, and a few colors, but where you see variation in some colors, I see them as both the same.
