I want my old taste buds back!

Everything I eat or drink tastes just slightly off.  Pizza rolls taste like they're filled with oregano.  Sprite tastes syrupy (canned and fountain).  Water makes me queasy.  The only things that taste good are pickles and ice cream, but not together! Stick out tongue  Anyone else having this problem?

Re: I want my old taste buds back!

  • I still like most things, but there have been a few random foods that I used to love that now taste awful. And I am so with you on the pickles and ice cream but not together craving. I have eaten either ice cream, gelato, or a milkshake almost every single day since the BFP. Just started in on the pickles a few days ago.

  • I was totally addicted to Newman's Own Salsa and now I can't stand the smell of it. I can't eat apples right now since they have a metallic taste and most of the stuff that I used to eat, doesn't appeal to me (including crackers).

    Even when I drink water it's blah and I don't want to drink too much juice b/c I'm picking up the sugar taste and makes me slighty queasy. I am okay when I drink ice cold SoBe drinks (staying away from the tea). I have yet to embrace pickles, but I am craving sauteed mushrooms and onions, lol!

  • I'm not liking the taste of meat lately...chicken, turkey, beef...etc....it tastes yucky to me....and water isn't tasting the same either

    I'm down to yogurt, rice, veggies, pastas, cheese and orange juice

  • I hate it too.  Last night, we had homemade tamales from a lady we know, but I could not bring myself to eat them.  i had a bowl of cereal. 
  • I'm not having too many taste issues except diet sodas (which I dont drink often anyway) I guess it's the splenda in sprite zero, for some reason it tastes vaguely soapy.. like when you get shampoo in your mouth just a little and cal taste the perfumes in it.. it's just really strange.?

    things are starting to get omre bland unles they're spicey, so I'm obcessed with spicey food right now.?

    I also had a tiny bit of butter pecan icecream this week and thought i was going to faint it was so good LOL

  • Right now I despise all meat except hamburgers, and most vegetables.  I love fruit, granola, and juice.  I force-fed myself a big bowl of raw carrots and green beans to get my veggies for the day.  I cannot do the bitter greens right now at all.
  • My list of fav foods have decreased dramatically. At this point, I am just chewing food regardless of whether I am enjoying it or not. I lost 3 pounds last week and would really love my taste buds back!
