I’m not sure when it happened, but my mouth rwrote the grocery list. I used to start every morning with two mugs of dark roast; now one sip tastes like metal and I’m reaching for water. The weird part is sweets.
A bite of the birthday cake I would have inhaled last year now feels aggressively sweet, while cold apples and salty pickles are suddenly the best things in the fridge. My partner thinks it’s hilarious that I bought three kinds of pickles in one week, which is definitely a new personal record.
I’m trying to treat this as a curiosity instead of a problem, but I do miss enjoying my usual coffee ritual. Did your taste changes show up slowly or flip overnight, and did any of them come back later?
I’d love to know what swaps actually worked for you.
