Why do we taste things differently??

Hello..my name is Lisa and I am almost 10 months post-op and I have a question about "taste".. Why do I now NOT like some of the foods that I did before surgery? It's like my surgeon put a micro-chip in my brain saying.. YOU DON'T LIKE THIS ANYMORE"!! lol Things that I used to love now taste very different. My surgeon re-routed my intestins and gave me a new pouch, but he did nothing to my taste buds...so what gives??? lol. Anyone have a clue? I've never gotten anything stuck, never gotten sick, I simply don't care for some of my favorites anymore... someone please tell me why! (big grin) Thanks for your help! Love and light, Lisa..
