Loss of Taste

I don't cook any more, but every so often I get tired of peanut butter sandwiches and chocolate-filled Oreos,  and they do, evidently, contribute to weight gain. So I try something different.
  A few weeks ago, I tried a no-flour banana bread that Kelly Ripa cooked, on Mother's Day maybe. They salivated over it; my attempt went in the trash.
   Memory is short so today I tried another recipe, for "Peanut Butter Banana Oat Balls---The Perfect Sweet Snack." They were neither perfect nor sweet, and not a snack, not for me anyway.
   Most peculiar was my search for nutrition in the form of the new Campbell's Well Yes Soup. I tried their offering of Butternut Squash Apple Bisque. It sounded tempting. Except for the temperature of the product, one hot, one cold, I would find it difficult to distinguish it from the new Orange Vanilla Coca-Cola.
