I can no longer stand most artificial flavors, especially artificial fruit flavors. Well, the citrus ones don't bother me--there's something about the acidic nature that cuts the harshness--but things like grape, cherry, blueberry, and the ultimate evil, raspberry, simply sicken me.

Why is this? I think I find the smell of them entirely too strong. These flavors persist in my mouth and nose for literally hours after they would cease being enjoyable even if I did like them. They give me headaches and make me feel the air is stale all around me.
