Well the inevitable showed its ugly head! Taste buds are toast!
Chips tastes like used grease.
Refried beans taste like dirt.
Buttered toast was ok this morning.
He is finding out that he can taste all the chemicals in food.
So if it is artificially flavored, he does not taste the Strawberry, or the cherry, but the chemical compound that makes up that flavor. Very odd indeed.
I researched the taste bud thing and it said that up to two months after the chemo sessions the taste buds would be messed up. It will be a challenge for sure now, to get food to taste some what palatable.
For now I guess he will have a little dirt fried in some grease, tossed with a few worms~
