Masking the Metallic Taste

I found that one of the worst side effects of the TCH is the awful burned/metallic taste that it left on my tongue, and the strange things that it did to my perception of taste. There are nutritionists who specialize in helping with finding foods that work while on chemo; below is just a list of what worked- and what definitely did not- for me. As I learn more, I will update more.

What tastes good:

Fried plantains. Seriously- taste exactly like fried plantains should!

Plain bread and simple crackers

Cheese that is not too salty

Mocha lattes (the chocolate seems to mask the bitter taste of the coffee)

Mint gum

Sparkling water, ideally with some flavoring (like a slice of lemon or lime)
Mangoes
Avocados
Tomatoes
Ice cream 

What does not:

Spicy foods- just tastes like eating a fistful of black pepper

Wine- tastes like Ever Clear! And I was not even into that in college..

Coffee

Plain water
