Now, THAT was STRANGE.
I have a sack of trail mix I've been munching on for a couple days- I love this particular kind (mixed nuts, raisins, and M&Ms), and eat it often. However, just now, three-fourths of the way through this particular sack, I chomped down on a handful and suddenly got a strong taste of kerosene in my mouth! Needless to say I didn't swallow it, and I had a big drink of milk, but five minutes later I still taste it.

Too freakin' bizarre.

:shrug:

2. Bad roasted nuts sometimes have a kerosene after-taste.
That is, nuts that have gone bad.
Especially walnuts or pecans.
I think it's a mix of excess tannin and the roasted nut oil gone old.

4. All you have to do is smell it
and you get the idea of the taste. Same with anything else...
