Jena Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 First I'm not sure what subject to put this under so if it needs moved...????? Today marks one week of the whole 30. Without any added sugar in my diet I can't believe already how fast my taste buds have changed. A couple days ago I shared a banana with my husband and I though WOW that's sweet. Have they always been this sweet? The carrots I'm shredding into my salads...wow they are sweet and good...the cantalopes, the yams...gosh these things taste good and sweet. I just find it amazing.

Derval Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Isn't it just? It's like all that refined sugar de-sensitised our taste buds. I made parsnip crisps the other evening and was surprised to find them slightly sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emily Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I love how much more sensitive my tastebuds get! Not just to sweetness, but to subtle tastes too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiJa Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I tasted a lemon today and I detected that it was indeed slightly sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarmenS Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I noticed this, too. I was eating a sweet potato, no butter or sugar (obviously) and realized it didn't need anything. A sweet potato is AMAZING without adding anything to it all! Sweet, slightly creamy--why do we add all that stuff to them? And I agree--carrots, cucumbers, broccoli--all sweet. I never would have imagined. Haven't tried a lemon yet, but I think I just might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
