I have a similiar condition though not as severe. I can smell but apparantly not as well as most people. For instance at work people sometimes complain of various smells - burnt popcorn, various foods, etc. and I rarely smell anything. At home my fiance' has complained of musty smells from a roof leak we had and she can't STAND the smell of haggis but again I rarely smell anything. If it is a really strong smell I get it but probably not as powerfully as others. As for taste food has never had a great interest for me other than as fuel or something to do. Perhaps I'm not tasting things as sharply as others and that explains my lack of interest. I don't worry about it, since I've always been this way I have nothing to miss.
