Damn my tastebuds!!!!

[DarthSnoopyFish]

It's been a little over 100 days since I quit smoking and this last week my tastebuds and sense of smell have came back with vengeance. All the flavors I have been vaping have suddenly became too sweet. Even the mild flavors I had are now too sweet. Flavors I was vaping a few weeks ago are now overpowering, like I am smoking incense. It's horrible!!!

Well, it happens..........order some new juice and sell the unwanted stuff in the classifieds or pif them.......that should pay for any new juice.....flavoraurt sells a mixture that removes all the taste so you could try to mix it yourself.......take a 5ml bottle and take the taste out....the nic is still there.....then add a little of the too sweet juice......it may soften it for you.......
Good luck.....
Glad you are healing....

I think we all been there. Take what you got and head over to Pay It Forward - PIF

An inexpensive way to try different liquids.

I had the same thing happen to me. Lost my taste buds coz I was vaping way too much and not drinking enough. You should check out my blog post about that, I wrote extensively about my experience.

Don't give up on them. I recently had 2 weeks where all my sweet vapes tasted like pure sugar. It was a craptastic time.

I still have no idea why, But it passed, and hopefully yours will too.

Snoopy:

So you're saying that near the 100 day mark, your smell and taste buds all returned suddenly? I would have thought that it might have been a more gradual sort of process...

I've been tobacco free for 2 months now, and still waiting for my sense of taste to return.

This is normal. Count on having to acquire a taste for a juice. If you have already acquired a taste for coffee, coffee is a good bet. Cherry too as it has a long history being mixed with tobacco and medicines.

I'm new to vaping, and I already feel like everything I vape tastes incredibly sweet. It's like every flavor starts off with someone saying "Lets start with a base of vanilla and go from there", even when it's marketed as "tobacco flavor".

I can only imagine how bad that will be when I've been a non smoker long enough for my taste buds to start working again.

Starting out I couldn't taste anything, so I ordered double, triple, four-ple flavor, and when my taste returned ---- blech!!! What I did was to get some unflavored juice and mixed it down to a vapable level of flavor. Found a much lighter flavor was better for most juices, but that's my preference......
