I ate a sandwich yesterday with cheese on it, something I havent done since 2021 when my parosmia started and OMG, it tasted bland and fine. For the first time in 4 years, cheese didn't taste like chemically rotting flesh.

It sucks so hard to be in the stage youre at but it will get better! 💜

This was the same thing that happened to me and my husband. He never experienced it like I did, but we also caught very diff strains of COVID. I had the first one in 2020 and he had like whatever mutated nonsense it turned into in 2022 or so.

I threw out all of the cheese in the fridge when it happened to me because I thought it all went rancid. That's when I realized something was wrong.

Keep a food journal with dates because things will get better, it just takes like years 🙃 UGH

Supplements and smoothies with added supplements and protein are what kept me from completely fading away. I had so much guilt and shame over it and would cry a lot because no one else understood what I was going through.

Remember that fed is best, whatever that looks like for you. ❤️‍🩹

The exact same thing happened to me. Like exactly the same timeframe and everything. It got very bad for me and I lost too much weight too fast because I couldn't stomach anything.

I couldnt even eat a lot of fruit because it smelled and tasted rancid. Grease was really bad. Coffee too.

It took 5 years for this to get better for me. I am so sorry you are going through it. It's traumatizing.

I ate with nose plugs for about 2 years. I still can't eat much dairy because it has never come back to tasting "normal".

If you ever want to scream about it, I am all ears. You're not alone!

I had similar blooms on my brain today too!

Maybe next time I should wear a Swiftie tee or something. Like be really annoying about it.

Or maybe I will knit a sweater that says, "bad taste" across it. 😏

It makes me so mad when folks past judgement on stuff like that, as if taste isn't subjective. As if what your coworker does with their money is any of your business.

Gosh it annoys me to no end how folks put down others just to make themselves feel bigger.

I am not even the biggest Swiftie and I hate going to big concert venues because crowds make me anxious.

But like, I know for a fact that if their coworker had spent their savings on seeing a more "credible" performer, the convo would have been very different.

It was the goofiest thing! He stayed like that for quite a while too 😅
