i have been using my PV for about 2 weeks. i used to be able to taste flavors, but now its almost like my taste buds are broken. i just recently bought several juices and was able to taste thin mint cookies, but vanilla is vague and i am left with a funny taste in my mouth. is this normal when quitting smoking? how long will this last?

It only took me a couple days to get used to the flavors - if I go out for a night and smoke analogs because I'm drinking I notice that whatever flavor I'm used to doesn't taste as good and that my lungs kinda freak out for awhile. It goes away after half a day or so. How much/long have you smoked?
i just filled this cart with vanilla and smoked maybe the equivalent of 2-3 analogs.
I've had that happen, a dose of nasal spray if my nose was a bit blocked and brushing my tongue helped alot.
Most of us go through the same thing as our bodies adjust to life without tar and chemicals. Takes a few days sometimes, but your tastebuds will spring back to life. Drink plenty of water and be patient. This too shall pass.
Does it taste like burning marshmallows? Maybe the cartomizer is defective.. have you tried another one?

i have not. now that i think about it, the thin mint cookie was with a different atty and i have noticed lately that the grey matter on both atty's seem to be coming off.
ill check it out with another atty and let you know.
I've had some cartomizers before where the batting gets a little loose.. but I usually just push it back down with a stylus or something.. Maybe the loose batting is burning on the atomizer and causing the weirdness.
I am in the second week of vaporizing, too. I haven't been able to taste any juice flavors in about three/four days. It is discouraging.
I did puff on a bit to much atomic fireball the night before my taste went to blah. So I am guessing that is part of my problem. But it seemed to be getting better yesterday and then today nothing. In all disclosure, today is my second full day tobacco free, so I don't know if that is a factor too.
Unfortunately I can smell like crazy (what is that foul odor!?!) just no tasting of the yummy juices.
Hope this passes soon.

Hope this passes soon.i dont think it tastes like marshmallows at all.
i just started vaping on the thin mint cookie with a different atty and i still get that sensation that my tongue and throat are tingling/burning but i can taste the thin mint cookies.
i have a distinct feeling the atties are going bad. as i said before, it seems as though there is less of the grey matter on the atties and it even looks like the grey matter is peeling off.
any advice on the grey thing would be very appreciated.

Ive just gone through my 3rd bout of this (first at about week 3 of vaping then around 7 weeks and now again at 7 months) Its very annoying but it does pass. It helps if you can steam your nose or use a Neti pot to clear it - your nose governs your sense of taste, (gives it the fine tuning that helps you distinguish between the more complex flavors), and if it or your sinuses get blocked (which is more likely now your nose hairs are re-growing) then your sense of taste takes a vacation.
I keep some harsh old crappy juice just for these times lol.
Thanks so much for the advise. I am glad to hear that it will pass. My hubby is not having this problem at all.
I have been a neti user for nearly a year now so I do already do that two-three times a day. Actually my sinuses are more open now than I can remember in a long time. I can taste food fine, just no juices. I don't know what else to try. I have tried bushing my teeth/tongue, neti pot, gargling, water drinking, smelling coffee to clear my nasal passages of lingering fragrance, changing juices, changing cart filler.....can you tell I want my taste back! HA!
I hope it returns soon. I know what you mean about using this to get rid of the crap juice. I feel like I should just get some no flavor nic juice and go to town since that is what it is like anyway. URG.
Get some Atomic Cinnacide from Tastyvapor. If you cant taste that then you have a problem lol. It also has the best throat hit out of all the juices I have tried
I have been vaping for about a year now and have experience good vaping days and bad ones. There are times when an e-liquid will taste great and times when the same liquid will seem to have no taste or not taste as flavorful as it did.
I think that sometimes we just get bad taste bud days!

I'm new to vaping and am not using analogs anymore. I've found this to be a problem at different times during a single day. In the morning, my Cognac tastes great with a cup of coffee! However, that same evening, the Cognac taste is non-existent. Perhaps it has to do with what I drink along with vaping? I wonder if I have a cup of coffee this evening with my Cognac if it will taste as fabulous as in the morning?!? I'll keep you posted tonight!!!
Taste might also be subjective because in the A.M. all your senses are usually sharper and at night we are all usually pooped out from the rigors of the day.
You are probably right! I love my cognac in the morning! Maybe I'm an alcoholic!!! LOL. Now I'm gonna have to resort to vaping all day and night! LOL
Usually when I have an off-taste day, I switch to a stronger flavor. When I first started vaping, I used only tobacco/menthol flavored fluid, but now those taste pretty bad since my tastebuds have started working again. And I have definitely noticed flavors changing depending on what I'm drinking. The smell of coffee tends to "reset" your sense of smell, so that may have a lot to do with the cognac flavor. I've always noticed that my rum tastes different depending on what I'm drinking as well. It does get better, and easier. You'll learn what flavors work best for you and it will become second nature. lol
