Give and get support around quitting

Coffee tastes weird

has anyone found that their coffee isn't as "satisfying" since quitting? I know they go together like peanut butter and jelly, but I thought I had read that quitting might make "us" more sensitive to caffeine. 

Just wondering if any other coffee-holics are falling out of love with coffee since quitting.

Perhaps you need to change it up?  Try a different brand, or get a little grinder and grind your beans fresh for each pot?  If you have always used a medium roast - perhaps try a different variety?  Some days mine tastes better than others...just does.  I am sure I don't use "exactly" the same amount each time, either.........Maybe switch to tea for a bit?

Mine isn't so good this morning.  Funny that you mention this, I was just thinking about starting to grind beans again this morning!

I do know ONE thing - we ain't smoking over it!

I added a little Splenda to mine.  But actually, I do find that there are other things not tasting the same anymore.

Me too. I made some oatmeal this morning--first time I've had it since I quit and it tasted so funky to me I threw it out!  Does instant oatmeal go bad??  I wouldn't think so!

HMMM I think my coffee tasted better too, after I quit.  I am with Nancy I change my coffee from time to time I like to grind my coffee to.  Grinded a cup for this morning and actually tastes yummy.
