Taste changes like this are a common challenge that many in the community have experienced during treatment. Consider trying foods with different textures or temperatures, adding citrus or herbs to help balance flavors, or speaking with your care team about whether this could be treatment-related - they may have specific suggestions that could help improve your eating experience during this time.

I have no experience with what you're going through. It sounds rough, and I'm sorry you have to deal with it. Someone advised me that the metal in silverware can make things taste bad. Switching to plasticware may help. I'm not there yet, so I don't know if it helps. Maybe give it a try?
