The before and after of my coffee routine is actually hilarious

I used to dump sugar and creamer in my coffee like it was a science experiment gone wrong. One morning about 3 weeks ago I ran out of both and tried it black, now I can't even taste the sweetness anymore without cringing. Has anyone else had their taste buds just randomly switch up on them like that?

Oh, has this ever happened to me... I was the same way, dumping all kinds of flavored creamers in there until one day I just forgot to buy more and had to go without. Now if I accidentally get a sip of someone's sugary coffee I almost spit it out, it's way too sweet for me now. I think once you get past that initial bitter shock black coffee just tastes more like actual coffee instead of candy. It's weird how fast our taste buds can change, like they just decided one morning to grow up or something.

Right? Same thing happened to me, now I can't even handle a drop of sweetener.

Forcing yourself to go without creamer for a few days is the only way. It's like a detox for your taste buds, after that black coffee just clicks.
