 Not that I wouldn't deserve it, with my potty mouth and all.   ;)

Ive had 3 or 4 burps that tasted very specifically of soap!  Ivory soap, I can even name the brand.

I seriously thought at first maybe it was some sort of surgical antiseptic they used, but tastes just like Ivory!  I know it's not actually soap, but my taste buds are playing tricks on me.

On Day  it was Campbell's Tomato Soup, which I haven't had for months!


Chalk it up to sleevie weirdness!   Its like having something alive in there, not like a baby, more sinister like...Gollum (my precious!)  Had to give him a name, what with all the growling and gurgling going on.  My dog gives me the funniest looks.

Feeling a bit better, I'm trying to make friends with it, but it's ornery and keeps changing its mind!

 I'm wondering how often you taste soap that you can name the brands by taste!

Welcome and good luck!

It tastes like Ivory smells!

But yeah, I've had my mouth "washed out with soap" (more like a drop on my tongue in reality) because I had a potty mouth when I was little too.

I'm not a soap water lol but this last day and 1/2 I'm expecting to burp suds!

I nicknamed my sleeve Gollum as well..."nasty, nasty Po-Tay-Toes!"
Don't know why you would be burping up specific flavors - that is a bit odd.
I had my mouth washed out with Irish Spring and Lava....So I know those flavors well (gross).

I've always planned on calling mine Sleevie Wonder (heard it from someone else but what a great name!) but I swear I've been along it Gollum all day, the way it acts.

I just told my aunt it's like it wants an wants - but you have to guess WHAT it wants. And if you're wrong it gives you a Charlie horse.


Trying Unjury chicken soup flavored protein for the first time, thought it would gross me out & bossy little Gollum didn't like warm yesterday. Now he likes it! This stuff isn't so bad and has a LOT of protein!

If you start burping bubbles you can rent yourself out for parties!

I'm so sorry people have been so rude in response to this post. I have the same problem any time I drink coffee with milk or milk substitute in it. My doctor says it's simple chemistry. Stomach acid plus milk(or other) fats = soap so you are actually burping "soap" that your body has made in your stomach.  I find avoiding fat solid helps and using almond milk in my coffee and liquid oils in my cooking helps a lot. Good luck
