I have had this same problem. Just a week ago or so I over drank some wine and got sick. I believe it maybe the stomach acids have changed or dissolved my taste buds on my tongue. For the last week or so all or some of the water I have been drinking tastes sweet. I believe it will turn to a normal taste with time. Also some people believe its high mineral content in water from certain areas that we live. Another explanation is drinking a lot of diet sodas with artificial sweeteners can change the response in the brain to make you think the water is sweet.

Vomiting is the body's way of getting rid of something the body cannot handle. The sour taste is likely from stomach acids, but it also serves to restrict us from turning around and eating right away, which will just cause more vomiting.

Because the membranes in the throat are sensitive, and the stomach acid that you throw up burns them.

When you vomit you brinback partly digested food into your mouth. It is sour because it is mixed with acid made by the stomach lining. The acid helps to break food down into smaller pieces.

Why can you taste sour on sour but not sour on salty?

Well, the whole thing is very complicated. The asorbic acid in sour, compliments the falic acid in other sour foods. It may seem more sour to you if you taste sour on sour, but it is just your taste buds reacting to two different chemicals. Both chemicals combined make it very easy to be tasted, and sometimes disliked. When you taste sour on salty it's harder to taste. One ingredient in salt, called cottonseed extract, mainly counteracts most asorbic and falic acids. So, in most salty foods it's harder to taste sour things.
