I ate a fruit that tasted like a donut (seriously), has someone else experienced something similar?

It seems unreal and strange, but yes I actually ate a fruit today that tasted like a doughnut/donut. It wasn't any special rare fruit, it was just a clementine or mandarin or something like that. It was one or two that had that weird familiar donut taste. The rest of them were normal and sweet and juicy like they should be. :)

It wasn't like one of those american dunkin donuts type, more like one of these (below) that are covered in sugar and with jam on the inside. In my country they usually eat those to celebrate the 1st day of May. They have never tasted like that to me before, and I certainly don't think the donuts tasted like fruit before when I used to eat them. I haven't eaten that in a long time so what is this?! I didn't enjoy it very much, it was just a weird experience. I wasn't thinking of donuts so it was not imaginary. lol... I know this seems crazy.

So am I an alien now? Or has something like this happened to other people?

The other day I was eating strawberries and a few of them tasted like vanilla ice cream... something I haven't had in FOREVER. I didn't like it, either. It made my stomach upset...

sometimes i have oranges that taste a little like my nonna's spaghetti and meatballs that i used to eat as a pre-vegan. it might have something to do with the consciousness surrounding the fruit at some point, from seedling to when it was picked. that's my guess.

It wasn't a blimp, same thing happened today!

I actually talked to someone who is an expert in chemistry and all that kind of stuff and she said that it was most likely because processed junk foods might have flavors of fruits in them, especially a kind of citrus fruit similar to the one I ate when I got a donut-tasting one. :-)

Yeah right. I was being serious though, it really did taste like a sort of donut. I wasn't kidding. But it's a joke to you guys eh? Oh well
