Moral Dilemma of the Day 6/18

You can have any superpower imaginable: super-strength, flight, x-ray vision, the ability to read minds. Whatever you can think of. The trade-off? You will lose your sense of taste forever. You may be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, or fly around the Earth at the speed of sound, but you will never be able to taste prime rib again. Strawberry milkshakes will just be cold liquid in your mouth. You may be able to use your newfound superpowers for the good of all mankind, but would it be worth it if you can never taste your chicken broccoli ziti again?

it would matter what my power was. for example, if i could create world peace I would feel very selfish being concerned about not tasting cheesecake again. however, if it was a silly power like steching, i'd rather eat cake even though not tasting would be better for my waistline
