Coffee tastes as good as it smells with plenty of half-n-half.

Mouthwash tastes as good as it smells in someone else’s mouth.

Cinnamon immediately came to mind.

Cinnamon immediately came to mind.

And I agree with the popcorn!

I guess I’m the mouth referred to in comment #1. Glad to know. :-)

You’re so right about bread, though! Franklin Bakery is KILLER with its smells, but is just bread when you actually eat it.

Vanilla Extract!

Vitamins. I just got those new One a Day Vitamins for Teens for my kids, and they smell just like cookie dough/cake batter. I think my daughter opened the bottle every couple of hours the first day just to smell them…

Baby Magic Lotion smells better than it tastes.

Good coffee tastes as good as it smells.
Not so good coffee smells great but isn’t so much…

Definately flavoured teas fall into this category for me! I LOVE the smell of things like apple and cinnamon tea but to me it all tastes like hot dishwater (not that I have ever tasted hot dishwater… but maybe it tastes nicer than it smells??)

Toothpaste.
Bovril.
Pepsi Max.
Perfume.
Baby Oil.

Fresh, warm, homemade bread (if done correctly) with cold butter on it tastes as good (sometimes better) as it smells.

As to your question: any hard candy – anything my mother-in-law makes.

I second hot flavored tea…
…and sometimes thanksgiving turkey
…and some cocktails
