Summary
A Reddit user in the USA reported that taste and smell disappeared after COVID-19 close to two years before August 2022. Taste had mostly returned but remained diminished, while smell was sometimes off though improved. They also found hot foods more tolerable because heat was reduced but flavor came through.
