I worked with a guy in the kitchen who would always burn the bread in the salamander. We were outside smoking one day and I asked him about it and he said he had no sense of smell. I thought it was strange to be a cook who couldn't smell, but then the whole not noticing bread burning made sense.

I always thought it was wierd the way so many cooks smoke given how important smell and taste are to it.

It is a nasty habit, I really only socially smoked on breaks and I no longer smoke cigarettes. You basically didn't get a break if you didn't smoke.
