Prince William tastes like baked beans and Harry like olive oil
Constantina Makridakis says the Prince of Wales tastes the same as Benedict Cumberbatch
Prince William tastes like baked beans and Harry is more like olive oil mixed with sugar, according to a woman with a rare condition. Constantina Makridakis has lived with synesthesia her whole life, meaning she can effectively taste words and sounds.
The neurological trait is a condition where her senses trigger each other – including when she watches TV or movies. When she hears Prince William she can taste baked beans, and actor Benedict Cumberbatch also has the same taste.
Harry Potter actor, Daniel Radcliffe’s tones apparently taste like chocolate milk. But she said generally men called Harry, like the Prince of Wales’s younger sibling, taste of sugar mixed with olive oil.
Constantina Makridakis.People named Archie, like his son, have the flavour of ketchup. Constantina, 28, tastes Cheetos when she hears Eminem.
“I’ve always had synesthesia, so I don’t know exactly when I first realised that it was unusual and that others couldn’t do it,” Constantina said. “I was around six-years-old and I remember wondering if everyone had the same tastes for names as me.
“But it seemed so normal and obvious that everyone must have it too, so I didn’t feel the need to ask anyone. It doesn’t bother me, and it’s not unpleasant.
“Sometimes when I get a taste, I can’t get the food or drink out of my mind and I’ll go buy it, but it’s not something I do often.”
The condition becomes more intense when Constantina watches YouTube videos or a film, as she’s concentrating on the voices and nothing else. Appearance also plays a role in how the pet sitter experiences synesthesia.
She said: “A person might taste like something specific when they aren’t wearing makeup or jewellery. But when they wear silver jewellery or certain shades of lipstick, they could taste like chocolate.
“I even associate certain accents with specific tastes. For instance, the Japanese accent tastes like cashews or noodle soup.”
