When I was very little, was on my way back from McDs with a straw, and several paper packets of various things including salt and sugar (yes, I was a dangerous criminal). I discovered that sugar tasted nice when sucked through a straw but salt did not.
But hang on ... salt and sugar were the same but different, just like the both and the nose were the same but different. Let me tell you, sniffing salt up one nostril is not fun.
