Silly Question

Well this may sound a bit silly but has anybody ever actually tasted food in there dreams, did it taste like it did in real life? Just curious

Yeah, it usually tastes awesome. In my last lucid I was eating tons of ice cream. Things with alot of flavour, like lemons and such are always amazing for me. Also every single candy I've ever tasted has been something unique and excellent tasting.

I had a dream recently where I ate chocolate cake. It tasted like chocolate and guilt!

In your dreams it's like you have 10 senses. You have 5 senses from your real body and your 5 senses from your dream body.

And yes! I have eaten ice-cream and it was awesome. One time though I ate frosting and it had no flavor.

Internet. I also just realized that it would actually be 9 senses. Sight from your physical body wouldn't work.

I think you're getting it mixed up a bit. You can access nine senses, but those are the regular five within your dream., and like you said all except sight in real life. The goal is to let go of your body completely though and try to just focus on the five senses you're experiencing in the dream.

If you pay attention to your real life feeling or hearing, you will start to lose the dream.

Yeah I know. I just felt like mentioning that we get more senses.

If you ever want to wake up, focusing on your real life senses can actually be useful. Not so useful when you roll off the top bunk in your sleep...

Mmm... yes.

Most often it either tastes like real-life food, or like some variation of it with an extra boost of enjoyment. Something about dreams can really boost your senses to levels you otherwise wouldn't reach. Then again, there have been a few cases where the food tasted like crap (sometimes literally), but for the most part it is amazing.
