My sense of smell is weak, my SO's is particularly strong.

Net effect is that we eat different things, because I like "garbagey" tastes like seaweed, anise, liquorice, anchovies etc. and she can sense if dairy or fruits/vegetables will give her food poisoning past expiration date.

As for hygiene I stick to a routine and rely on other senses - if I'm feeling sort of sticky then it's definitely time to bathe.
