amio,

It could be perfectly benign, you just pick up on new flavor notes after eating the same thing for a while. Your first chili is not going to be too fruity, because it's busy tasting like burning. Your first cup of coffee might not be very pleasant because coffee-naive people typically only taste the bitter at first. Maybe some flavor compound in the cheese is also in honey. It's unlikely anyone should add honey, and then it'd be on the label.

On the other hand, it's very common for infections (COVID, especially) to mess up your sense of taste and smell. It could make almost anything smell like almost anything.

One thing to try if it's obviously not an infection is "just buy better cheese" and see if there are still unexpected flavors.

Also, what kind?
