How weird you willing to get if your taste and smell doesn’t come back in a few days?

Might as well start Whole 30 or one of those dumb diets everyone does in January.

It's awful. And I had no idea it was happening until after the fact like those people leaving negative candle reviews. I just thought all the food I was eating was really shitty.

Right?

I was questioning it, I made a giant batch of homemade chicken stock and soy eggs for some ramen.

Then got that feeling.

So I heated up the chili, dumped cayenne on and nothing

Incredibly unsettling feeling

I had rough ridin' Takis and remember thinking "huh I thought the real Takis were spicier than the Trader Joe's one" and then had a cheeseburger that I thought didn't have cheese on it and then had a cocktail that my wife said smelled amazing and I was like "it doesn't smell at all ohhhhhhhhhh crap". this all happened the same day after I'd been sick for a few days.

I thought I was losing my taste. Turned out it was the menthol or whatever in the NyQuil/DayQuil numbing my taste buds. :)

Thankfully, I never lost taste or smell.

Omicron is going to vaccinate everyone, which is honestly pretty great.

will it, though?

14 month old tested positive with an in home test last night. ms ww and I were negative. Went into the dr for more official tests this morning so we will see.

Oh man. Sorry about your kid WW. I don't really care about any of you guys, but I hate seeing the little ones get it.  :frown: Hopefully it was a false positive.

yeah, i'm not sure about this. Sounds great and I hope its true, but i've read about people that have very few antibodies right after Omicron. That seems to be pretty rare too, so  :dunno:

mrs mocat had covid a few months ago and lost her taste/smell, so a coworker (who had also previously had it) brought her two xxxtra spicy ramens, and told her to eat one now and eat one after taste came back. mrs mocat's mind exploded the 2nd time

wasn't there a thing about eating a burned banana or something to bring your taste back?

I would recommend NOT doing this. Potentially toxic.

2nd test was positive too. So far he's been doing fine, not any worse than a couple other bugs he's had this winter. If ms ww and I don't get it, this vaccine rules so much.
