A member asked:
Not sure why this has been happening for the past several years but i have a strange sensitivity to the taste of metal. metal silver-wear or metal straws send shivers up my back. i taste the metal so heavily that i have to use plastic silver-wear?

It's hard to explain this phenomenon but if I was you I would train myself to fight this sensation by tasting those everyday until so I can get used to it.
