Fun fact: You lose up to 30 per cent of your taste buds during a flight
Dryness experienced at high elevation and low pressure reduces the sensitivity of a person’s taste buds to sweet and salty foods by about 30 per cent, according to a BBC article. Sour, bitter and spicy flavours are almost unaffected. The dry cabin air also affects our ability to smell, reducing our ability to taste further.
