I can taste my juices!!! I'm so very happy today!
I picked up vaping a few weeks ago. The first few days I still smoked 2-3 analogs a day (Newports) & quit analogs completely on September 1st. vaping has eased the cravings & gotten me through but I seriously thought I was missing something. I couldn't rave about flavors like I saw other members doing. I couldn't really taste any of them. I bought several to try & the only two that I could really stand was V4L's Wow Smilin Special Menthol. Everything else I had just tasted like a jumble of flavors. Most tasted like I threw apple pie, tobacco, vanilla, cherries, and a banana into a blender and burnt it.
I knew my taste buds were going to take time to recover, but everything I googled said it would take about a week. I was beginning to think I was going to be stuck vaping minty flavors forever. Then, last night at dinner I realized that The pasta sauce tasted like the best thing I'd ever eaten. My partner assured me it was good, but not anything spectacular & certainly not any better than the 100 times I had previously eaten it! My taste buds must be coming back!
First thing this morning, I got into the office and started looking through juice that should have tasted great to me but didn't. I tried a few & I could taste them!!!! everything I tried tasted exactly like it should. I filled a carto with Vape-A-Licious's AG's Dream & it was incredible tasting. Cherry limeade tasted just like cherry limeade!
dl;dr: My taste buds are getting better & now I have a bunch of juice to try again for the first time! For newbies that can't taste their juice, Don't give up on a flavor you thought you'd like but didn't. Hang in there and try it again later.
