Have you ever had this happen to you? You love a certain food or flavor for years, and then one day, for some reason, you're completely turned off by it and don't want to have it again? That's what is happening with me right now with mocha.
More specifically, mocha drinks. As I've mentioned here many times, I don't really like coffee, but I like drinks that have a mocha flavor in them. I bought Nestle's Ice Java chocolate mocha flavored syrup for a couple of years. I really liked it, and bought it again this summer. About two weeks ago it suddenly started to taste...um, really bad to me. It didn't taste right at all. I don't know if they changed the formula or if my bottle had gone bad (the date was fine), but it suddenly tasted really sharp and bitter and disgusting. They don't make the other flavors anymore (at least they don't sell them in my area).
But the mocha problems don't end there.
