And ice cream lovers rejoice!

Ben & Jerry's developed its signature chunky style because the company's Co-founder Ben Cohen has limited smell and taste, and big ingredients help him experience different ice cream flavors.Many brands of ice cream have pieces of candy, brownies, fruit, cookie dough, or other sweet treats mixed in, but Ben & Jerry's ice cream, in particular, has become known for sizable chunks in almost every bite.

When Jerry and I first started creating the flavors [in the 1970s], he'd give me something to taste. He'd say,"Well, how do you like it?" I said,"It's good. But I can't tell what flavor it is." So he would just keep on adding more flavoring until I could guess., is a complete loss of smell that impacts a patient's ability to taste:

Even a partial loss of smell could cause you to lose interest in eating, which in extreme cases, might lead to weight loss, poor nutrition or even depression. Some people add more salt to bland foods, which can be a problem if you have high blood pressure or kidney disease. Your sense of smell is also crucial for warning you of potential dangers such as smoke or spoiled food.
