Here is the issue.....I've always loved spicy and bold foods. Now, even bland foods are seeming to be "too much". I freakin love tacos and spicy chili. I literally can not eat either. Not only are these spicy/bold foods bothering my taste buds, but most all foods that I eat do not taste "right" to me.

I can't figure out what the heck is causing it! Is it the lack of smoking and acidic soda? Is it the meds? Or did my taste buds just choose an odd time to do a complete change??

What's up with that???? LOL

You taste buds will adjust
