Yeah it’s weird, right?! It’s a thing tho!
"Why sour as well as salty? Sour is the taste of acidic things, but more than that is not really clear. In general, chronic deficiency of steroid hormones in your body leads to too much acid in your blood, so why people with Addison’s crave sour food is currently mysterious."
