I had the same feeling and it turned out that my uvula was a little traumatized during surgery. In order for it to heal, it had to shed a layer of mucous that seemed to take forever!!! I think it was finally gone after about 10 days.

I ate a few Cheetos about a month out and they tasted HORRIBLE!!! They were way too salty and had a very artificial taste. I've not had a craving for them since!!! Your taste buds will change....so hang in there and don't go for the Cheetos!!!!
