Oh I'm forever brushing my teeth now that I am not smoking.

I feel for those of you with the Celiac issue, SO much worse than my issue with sweeteners. I know I feel like food is a minefield, I cannot imagine what it must be like for you all. :( The only ray of light you all have is that gluten free stuff is starting to be more available and prominent.

With most flavors in juice, Its more olfactory than anything, I have a very sensitive sense of smell so I can imagine that this plays into my issue with juice an awful lot. I have an issue with most perfumes too, preferring essential oils and whatnot which in most cases smell more 'pure' for me. Thats the same issue I'm having with most juices, they are just hitting too many "yuck, fake" meters for me.

I always thought I had a good sense of smell but juice flavors always taste so muted to me. I'll watch reviews where people say they are picking up all of these flavor notes and getting different flavors on the inhale versus the exhale and I just get either nothing or something that tastes nothing like it should. They smell great in the bottle but taste nothing like it. I've had some that just taste like bad perfume too.

yes! I am often having this issue, the taste just doesnt seem to be *there* its sort of like drinking seltzer water, theres a slight aftertaste most of the time of whatever its supposed to be. The fireball I'm using is too strong by itself so I'm mixing it with other things, theres something in this fireball that adds a sweetness and hits my tongue better, but its ONLY in this fireball, and I had a gas station blueberry that I found it. I wish I knew what it was.
