Bill,

There is a natural sweetness to corn and if you can "taste" it don't underestimate that ability. I "taste" the sweet in sweet corn now and I enjoy it. I don't even put salt on my corn anymore. Salt isn't good for you anyway so we still need to watch what we eat.

Yes choc taste bitter now but not in all choc things for instance I still enjoy choc chip cookies.

I was never a soft drink drinker anyway so I haven't even tried one post Tx.

Hang in there.
