The reason we cannot taste food well is because when we have a cold our nostrils are blocked by mucous which takes away are ability to breathe properly. Now to taste food you need your sense of smell; without it you will not be able to taste what you are eating. Hence you cannot taste food if you have a cold or a cough.

Answer:

this is because the sense of smell and the sense of taste both work in harmony. the recognition of the smell of the food and combination of taste buds make the brain detect the taste. therefore, during severe cough and cold we don't get the taste of food give reason
