Comment on Does Anyone Else get the thing where an otherwise nice-tasting cheese randomly tastes of vomit, or have I just been really unlucky and eaten a lot of mouldy/rotten cheese in my time?

It’s the same flavour (from butyric acid) in both. It just depends on what your brain chooses to associate that smell with that determines the taste. So your brain is just switching between the two. Maybe look at the cheese packet when you’re eating it to see if you can help your brain get the right answer
