Always lookin for something tart and bitter?
Seriously - I think it has something to do with drinking all those splenda sweetened drinks. Im so sick of sweet that I have found a new addiction - MUSTARD. On everything. I gotta have it everyday. I used to HATE mustard!
Im just wondering if anyone else has to hunt for things of hte tart and bitter variety since RNY?

I had a horseradish thing for a couple of weeks, then it died. Horseradish pretzel dip, horseradish with mayo on sandwiches... I never even liked horseradish before..

Mine hovvers between wasabi and oranges or indeed anything citrus. I am addicted to a variety of tangerine called Ortaniques, if you see them try them, they are really yummy. I've also just had fresh pineapple, it's a bit fibrous so I can't eat much but the taste mmmmm
Wasabi goodies include wasabi coated macadamia nuts and because they're covered in wasabi you can't physically eat more than a moderate amount otherwise you blow your head off.
I went for years unable to eat this kind of food with my band I am so happy I can eat it now.

I was craving fresh lemons for awhile when I wasn't feeling very partial to food in general after surgery. I'd get lemon water with extra lemons just to suck on the lemon juice.
RNY Surgery 10/22/2008 Heaviest Weight 274 Pre-op Weight 268/272(?) Currently 127! One-derland! DOWN 147 POUNDS- More than I weigh now! Goal 125 (impossible?)
Pickles... can not buy it - because i would eat the whole jar... in one day...
I have the same problem. Everything is so sweet and nauseated. I crave tart, sour tastes.
But ever time I do - I develop pain later on. Not sure if i have an ulcer. And the spicy- tart food aggravates that.
I think we may need the salt, the tart - to balance all the sweeteners we are getting.
If you can - try to drink 1 cup warm water + juice from 1/2 lemon first thing in the morning. (I can not - think ulcer...)

Pickles!!! Like two weeks out from surgery I was craving them like a pregnant woman! LOL Even now I still do. Although I have to limit myself because of the high sodium count. Ugh!
