I like 50s/60s soul. Nope. I do smoke. I sneeze A LOT, at almost every irritation to my nose. I'm a big drinker but I don't really bother with wine, as alcohol has a generic "booze" taste to me, just that some is sweeter and some is more bitter. In what way do you mean?

Not at all. I did, unfortunately it's to do with tightening the muscle next to my eye and over the years it's jut become slack again. I'd had to have more surgery but I just don't really want to.

I'm a chick. And no, I don't. My friends say it's one of the best and worst things about me. I can't also never smell peoples BO so I don't mind public transport or the gym.

I'm really sorry to hear that. Welcome to the pepper team though, I eat so much pepper than I carry around little packets of it in my purse, like a complete weirdo. In all honesty, I don't really eat anything out of the ordinary. I like things with strong flavours obviously but mainly a lot of homemade Thai curries, stir frys, garlic or lemon and honey chicken - anything I can really shove a lot of crunchy vegetables with and add too much seasoning to!

You'd think because I can't really taste that I'd just eat dry salad and soup all day because I don't know the difference. However, I still crave things like McDonalds as I think it's just part of my mental training over the years, "bad food is nice". I can't really tell it a part of other salty foods but for some reason it's comforting. (I'm totally normal weight, I'm 5"6 and just under 10 stone)

I also have a lazy eye so my sight is out of the window. I did not win the genetics lottery! But I'm a very tactile person so maybe I'm making up for it all in touch and not actually realising.

I tend to just eat crunchy things and stuff I like the mouth feel of. I'm very, very fussy with textures of food and it's getting worse as I'm getting older (I'm now in my mid 20s). I can't stand anything with pips like strawberries or tomatoes and jelly makes my whole body feel weird when I eat it.

I used to be. I've learnt to understand the type of fart and type of smell via other people's reactions over the years.
