Random stranger popping in

I just stumbled across your post and had to comment because I have the same 'problem. I'm also female, and my mother has the exact same sort of sensitivity. We both tend to favor asian foods as most American foods make us ill. I can taste the difference between iodized and sea salt, smell something and list the ingredients used, and tell what is in someone's garden from blocks away. I too like the taste of plain rice and salmon fat(I can also tell whether a fish is from the sea, rivers, or fisheries in origin by taste), but then I'm Alaskan so that's probably to be expected. :P
I natural essential oils in a jojoba oil base as perfume as the commercial scents all reek of alcohol to me. Commercial cleaners make me ill, I use white vinegar for everything. The list goes on honestly.
Oh, I can also tell a dedicated human carnivore by scent, same with people who consume a lot of dairy as can my mother. It seems like there really might be something to the female sense of smell being stronger.
