" food products becoming less tasty"
Salt and sugar seem to become tolerated tastes. After a while of regular consumption then you need higher levels to maintain the same sensation. Our palates probably adjust to any regularly consumed taste.
I have not added salt or sugar to anything for years - and I once loved lots of both. I am amazed by how salty and/or sweet some processed foods now taste. I eat 99% cocoa chocolate - and I have never found it as bitter as most people do. Even the packet advises people to start off slowly as it is "an acquired taste".
