After RNY surgery, my taste buds changed very dramatically. Many foods became very bland. For example I love shrimp dipped in garlic butter. But after surgery, it was tasteless. [i am 34 months post op, so the time will come when you can also try this.]

A couple months after surgery, I tried ketchup. It burned my mouth like hot sauce. [but that was the very first time I tried it and now its O.K.]

Because the diet was very bland after surgery because basically everything was mono-food (one food type at a time), I understand your desire to find taste again. I discovered taste by mixing food groups together. I made my own high Protein chili and this restored taste. It seems like you might be a newbie, so you may have to wait awhile before you try the recipes at the end of the following article. But they should provide you with tasty food again when you reach that point. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf
