taste

have you dropped sugar and some food items are now tasting sweeter than they did?

Metformin affected my taste of food and in particular made vegetables taste like burnt plastic. It is on the list of known side effects so if you are taking Metformin see your nurse.

EDIT: I have been trying to think of the phrase they used on the PIL. I think it was "Taste Disturbance".
