Horrible taste

I couldn’t stomach pineapple (normally love it). I started off with Ribena, which was OK for a while, then orange squash, then lemon squash - I would get bottles of different flavoured drinks (single, small ready to drink bottles) to try to find something I could tolerate. As for food, for me, bran flakes with milk for breakfast, hard boiled eggs for lunch and a small jacket potato with cheese in the evening, or once I made tomato soup. I would try to get liquid wherever I could as like you, plain water tasted horrible. Ice lollies (I have Calippo in my freezer). Chilled fizzy lemon and lime (Tesco own brand), expensive punnets of melon from the supermarket (no energy or willingness to cut up a whole melon. Same with mango - OK once but horrible later! It is hard. I have thrown away so much in the way of food and drink in the last few weeks. I live on my own so there is no-one to finish what I can’t. You may find that what is acceptable this time is not the next. I have only just started drinking the ribena again as my drugs have changed and on my current one, my taste is not so bad as when on EC. All I can recommend is keep experimenting. x
