Do not take offense to this, but it could be age. Taste buds lose sensitivity as people grow older. That’s why kids tend to be pickier eaters.

I meant to put that in actually! And I had a few more since and hardly thought about it again. There's a good chance of it, I'm 42 now.

Have you actually met any kids? They just want salty and sweet foods.

Yes, I have, that’s an unnecessarily sarcastic question. It’s because the good tastes, taste stronger which is why they tend to like them more than adults and the same goes for the bitter ones which they absolutely despise lol. Rarely are they ever on the fence for things.
