Foods that taste completely different to you now...



Recommended Posts

I have had some strange food taste changes and I thought it would be interesting to see if anyone else has too.

Here are mine:

- hamburger tastes like cardboard (no flavor) after you chew it a thousand times;

- as soon as I put tuna in my mouth, I gag from the overwhelming fishy flavor (I used to love it); :puke:

- weak ice tea is my favorite friend now (instead of diet coke);

- sweets give me a headache (I'm a chocaholic);

- coffee tastes so bitter after a few swills (even with three splendas in it)

- had 1/2 a small piece of store bought chocolate cake and it SUCKED! Way too sweet, made my teeth ache!

- bread does NOT go down! (yippee that's my worst enemy!)

Thats all I've tried that new so far. Still loving the refried Beans, chicken breasts, salad is divine (like always), although I need less dressing than before to be happy. :hurray:

Just wondering about you guys...:grouphug:

I can no longer eat broccoli. It gets in my throat and make me gag! I chew it up really good but I still can not swallow it. I had scrambled eggs this morning and they don't like me either. It actually hurt when they hit the band part. I am afraid to eat anything now. LOL Guess I will lose by starving to death!

I thought food would taste so much better than it does. Friday's at work is treat day. I decided on a M&M cookie. I took 1/3 of one. It didn't taste all that good. I was glad I limited my portion. I think my taste buds have changed! :hurray:

I used to love tuna...now it is just as you said and too fishy and the consistency is not good. I found some little premixed cans that are sweeter in taste and I can get them down if I have to.

I now love iced tea too...used to be a diet pepsi-holic.

Never was much of a sweets person, but now I can barely stand to watch OTHER people eat sweet stuff. yuk

And I was the biggest coffee drinker you ever met! BEFORE. Now it just does not taste good to me. I have tried brewing it lighter, but I think I am just not supposed to drink it anymore. I would never have predicted this! lol

So funny how things taste different than we remember them.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
