It could just be me, but I have no recollection of ever smelling something in a dream. I don't think I've ever tasted anything, either. I've only ever had a few dream-seconds of lucid dreaming in total, though.

I’ve ate plenty of things in my dreams. Recently I was eating wings lol. I’ve smelled smoke in my dreams cause my house was burning with fire. I’ve gone through wormholes in space. I usually have those wild dreams when I take weed tolerance breaks. My schizophrenic friend says he will sometimes taste or smell different things from time to time.

I've definitely eaten things while dreaming. It's just that if there was any actual taste associated with the action, the memory is completely gone by the time I wake up.

How do you know you’ve tasted things if you just said you can’t remember tasting it.

I said that I remember eating things. Like the physical action of putting food in my mouth. I don't remember any taste being associated with the action from the dream.

Do you have no concept of a non-lucid dream?
