    Asparagus.....

    Ok so I have been doing fabulous...no cheats, no thoughts about cheating etc.
    So the other night i made a beautiful steak and sauteed some asparagus. Well this really bothers me because I found that it tasted soooooo sweet! I picked it up from the local grocery store and normally I love asparagus, but I found myself turned off by how sweet it tasted to me! Its fresh, nothing added. I just dont understand! Lol
    Anyone else find this? Maybe my palate just isnt used to having sugary foods anymore and just really picked up on the flavor!
    Anyways, its not a huge deal...it just bugged me. lol

      Absolutely!

      I find red peppers and brussell sprouts really sweet too!
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

        Hollandaise sauce, or mayo taste good on asparagus and would probably lessen the new-to-you "sweet" taste.
        Isn't it amazing how ones taste can change?

          Isn't it fabulous that our taste buds can really taste things now that we aren't bombarding them with sugary foods or artificially flavored ones?

          Wait until you get to OWL and start adding fruits, like berries---I find them too sweet and need to cut their sweetness with lemon or lime juice.
