Well since the taste buds in your mouth and nose are connected you can plug your nose while eating to dull the flavor if it tastes bad.
The things in the nose aren't taste buds, though.
Those are restricted to the surface of the tongue. Same general idea, though; both detect chemical signals and send some messages to the brain through nerves. Taste buds recognize the more intense characteristics of taste (bitter/sweet/salty/spicy/savory) and get you 20% of what there is while the much smaller and more numerous smell receptors pick up the other 80%.
What your nose does is not taste, but rather smell.
However, complex tastes are really only detectable when the two senses are combined.
With that said, I'd really rather not snort acidic liquids up my nose; just smelling an open can of soda is enough for me to get a good 90% of what it tastes like, the other 10% just being "sweet". To shorten it even further; the soda actually only tastes sweet, but smells bloody amazing.
The process and whys that organisms came to make use of these senses in such a way is definitely cool and has served us well in avoiding some embarrassing deaths, but condom snorting is as idiotic as almost every other supposed "craze" and needs to go extinct.
