Smell of hot food reaches faster than of cold food because the steam of the hot food mixes with air particles. Air travels around and smell of hot food spreads around. Whereas,

cold food has no steam and therefore we do not get the smell of cold food.

Why cant you smell cold food from far while you can smell hot food from far?

It is possible to smell food when it is cold. However, it is much easier to smell food when it is hot. The heat gives off thermal energy, which makes it simpler to smell. Because hot food is much simpler to smell, hotter food often tastes better than colder food. If a food smells good to someone, then it often has a better taste, too. Edit: If the cold food has spice on it, then yes! Or if it has garlic in it!

Why is food less palatable when you have a cold?

When you are sick with something like the flu, it can make it difficult to smell things. Swollen sinuses or a blocked nose can be the cause of this for you. When you taste something, more than half of the flavor comes from the smell of it. For example, eating a potato, apple, and onion with your nose pinched, will all taste the same. Another (less likely) reason could be that you have a layer of mucus built up on your tongue with the cold, use your toothbrush to brush off your tongue when you brush your teeth to see if that will help.
