Affected me for about two weeks

In a specific and weird way: I love bitter things - beers, coffee, etc - but couldn’t stand the taste of anything bitter when I had covid. Then it went away and back to my normal bitter loving self. Didn’t really notice any other changes to my sense of taste. The dog’s farts remained rancid throughout so potential silver lining missed there I feel.
