In a similar vein, sometimes my breath feels sort of ‘milky’, even though I haven’t eaten any dairy products. What could that be?

Edit: Apparently this is not normal??
Try this experiment to see if you get the taste as well:
Next time it’s freezing outside, sprint for a bit so that you’re left taking deep breaths in the cold air by the end of it. That’s when I get the taste. My saliva also feels a bit thicker, probably due to the cold air.

    My guess is similar to everyone else, that the dryness is affecting it. Cold air might dry things out, especially if you’re breathing heavily through your mouth since your nose feels cold (and cold weather can be strenuous). That might cause it to get dryer, or decrease saliva production entirely and make things thicker

    This might be a weird thing to experiment with, but that might give you some areas to test out
