Sugarmute actually made my favorite office pastries taste like cardboard

I work in an office where people are constantly bringing in donuts, cookies, and leftover birthday cake. It takes a lot of willpower to say no, and usually by 3 PM I cave. I bought Sugarmute on a whim after reading about how it dulls the sweet receptors on your tongue. I popped one of the lozenges right before a coworker brought around a tray of brownies. It was the strangest sensation. When I took a bite, there was zero sweetness, just a dense, bland, vaguely cocoa-like texture. It honestly ruined the brownie for me, which is exactly what I needed to break the habit! The muting effect lasted for about an hour, completely short-circuiting my afternoon sugar craving. I keep a bottle in my desk drawer now. My only minor complaint is that the initial herbal taste is a little chalky, but drinking a glass of water right after helps a lot. It really lives up to its name and does exactly what it promises.
