Protein Pills & Hot Sauce:
“Your sinuses clog up and your tongue kind of swells up,” said Hadfield, author of “An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth.” “And a lot of the subtlety of the palate and the tongue and the smell that goes along with it — the olfactory ability to sense your food — it all becomes congested.”
Imagine standing on your head for hours, he said. It’s kind of like that.
To compensate, astronauts have been known to go heavy on the hot sauce. Wasabi, Louisiana hot sauce, peppery olive oil and Tabasco clutter the ISS cabinets.
