well, some things will taste worse, too... i used to love reduced fat cheez-its, i thought they tasted exactly like regular cheez-its but were crunchier (which i prefer to the flaky regular ones). when i got my taste back, i realized the reduced fat ones actually taste like salted cardboard... oh well
It is amazing isn't it? I took a puff off of one of my friend's analogs a couple weeks after I quit. Even though it was the brand I smoked a pack a day of for 20 years, it tasted disgusting to me.
Things become way spicier too!
I'm sure you've hit the point where analogs make you want to gage when you smell them.
Things only get better! Few months in you'll feel great.

Well done, jwj. Good things taste amazing, but bad things will now REALLY taste bad. Your senses are getting honed. Like if you got lasic eye surgery, not all the girls are gonna look purtier...
For me, the smell sense was, like someone else said, "I could smell a bunny fart in a tornado now..."
I went to my local pub (for the first time since vaping), ordered up the medium wings like I had done tens of times before, and nearly died!!!
But the best part???
(and I LOVE this part...)
Bacon is now way more, a, mmmnn, Bacony!!!!!
It really hit me with a fresh burger off the grill one day, man that was the best burger ever. I thought maybe I had gotten some special meat or something lol.
Commercially prepared food actually doesn't need a salt shaker anymore. I can also walk outside and smell things I haven't perceived since I was young, like dirt, leaves, pine straw, and things you have to watch out for or you will step in. The latter is something I wish I could turn off!
About 6 to 9 months into the quit smoking journey it gets even better, until you experience allergies or get a cold. Some people say their allergies come back after quitting. I guess the nasal passages open up and come back to life. Then, they are offended by pollen again. There are over the counter remedies for that, though.

My girlfriend did this to celebrate the return of taste. Can't wait for it to get even better.
Wait until you eat an orange or a fresh pineapple, it's almost too much! Exquisite!! Happy Vaping 
Glad to hear the taste has returned. One of the many benefits we enjoy by vaping and not smoking. Welcome to the Forum. All the best!
Maybe you could consider a mech/rda combo (if you dont already have one) to celebrate the.rebirth of your taste buds. Next level vaping, I don't even smoke hookah anymore.
Congrats! Mine comes tomorrow as well! It has been a long wait huh?
Right? I started off with tobacco juice, too. Can't stand the stuff now.
My only fear is trying some of those things that I thought were really good during the time I smoked. For instance, I haven't tried pickled eggs since I've stopped smoking and picked up vaping.
I really like pickled eggs. At least, I think I do. Now that I have taste buds, I'm a bit afraid to try 'em now.
Welcome!! The renewed taste buds.... Sense of smell.... Increased lung capacity..... man it's all good. Thank you vaping and ECF for keeping me away from the analogs!!
I was outside a while ago and could smell my neighbors cigarette from about 40-50 feet away. Amazing!
On the highway, I can smell someone smoking in a car ahead of me. And one car, well, lets say, the sweet smell of colitas rising up through the air...
And I can smell my 3 doors away neighbors septic field.
Yes, the sense of smell is full bore now....
And the wife has mentioned her sense of smell, she borrowed my car, and for the first time in like forever, didn't feel like throwing up.
