Posted Saturday, February 20, 2010 at 12:20 PM I went to a mexican food restaurant last night and ordered Vegetarian combo. It didn't have any cheese listed, but it had melted cheese all over it when they served it to me. I tried scraping it off, but it was all over. So I ate some of it. It really didn't taste the same as I remembered before I went Vegan. It tasted fatty and it really ruined my supper. I use to really love cheese, but now it taste bad. Has anyone else had that experience?

Posted Saturday, February 20, 2010 at 12:54 PM I've never been a big dairy foods person but I have had other people tell me that their taste for cheese has totally changed. In "The China Study" I found that most people who think they LOVE cheese are really just addicted to it. That would explain why it tastes differently once you get rid of the addiction. I have found that certain things no longer sit well on my stomach, feel heavy, make me feel blah. I've also found that I don't care for too much salt or too much fat. If something has a lot of fat it feels nasty in my mouth, salt just doesn't taste good. In addition to being vegan I try to stay away from processed foods. I eat mostly fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans. When I do eat processed foods is when I get the feeling of too much fat, too much salt. Vikki ~ Wild4Stars@gmail.com

Posted Saturday, February 20, 2010 at 1:06 PM Things do start tasting too sweet, fatty, and salty to me after I've eaten whole foods for a while, yes.

I am also noticing my body's reaction when I have something processed, when it never felt odd before how it I can feel the affect of the food now. All good though! www

Posted Monday, January 17, 2011 at 5:56 PM I truly believe our taste buds change their preferences in the 21 days mentioned in the PCRM info. I have lost my desire for both meat & dairy & genuinely like non-dairy milks, except rice milk which is just OK. Stick with it because vegan is backed by the science. Personally, after 6 wks. I LOVE the vegan recipes. Hang in there. crzrman39

It is getting more difficult to eat out because most things taste too salty or too greasy. Formerly, I did not enjoy being in the kitchen, but now I am starting to like to cook my own meal. I made my first hummus yesterday and loved the fact that I controlled how much salt and lemon juice went into the dish. I loved the taste of the finished product. I am really enjoying cooking with a wide variety of spices.

Posted Saturday, January 21, 2012 at 2:00 AM Mine has, I tried eating one of my favorite burgers from a fast food restaurant and it made me feel ill all day, it actually did not taste good, I could not even finish it. And that was on day 6.
