Do you enjoy very sour things? "Sourness" or "sour qualia" more specifically. E.g. Do you like drinking a shot of pure lime juice with no sugar on it?

Speaking of mixed-valence experiences, have you ever had a niacin flush? :D

Ohh, I think I have, but only because of those "5 hour energy" little bottles. I think the niacin was a kind of active placebo? Like, "my face is flushed" makes you feel that you are taking some kind of hard core stimulant? I liked it, personally :)

Oh, you would know if it happened! A niacin flush feels kinda like a full-body sunburn for ~45 min: warm, itchy, touch more pleasurable. You would need to buy niacin supplements (nicotinic acid or nicotinamide, *not* inositol hexaniacinate which is branded as "no flush niacin")
