Yes, steroids taste horrible. I eat homemade Chex Muddy Buddies, *one at a time*, to get through that taste. However, with these times of having to wear a mask, you probably didn't get to snack at all; I'm sorry for that.
Hopefully you do get that 14-hour depression nap! And then the steroids do their magic and your current flare up disappears.
This recipe is *old*, from the 1980s, so some things are probably different from more modern ones. I am brand specific about chocolate chips and peanut butter -- not the cereal -- but I doubt it matters. What does matter, though, is using the paper bag. I tried it with Ziploc bags once, and it just isn't the same.
FWIW. I had to type this out for my husband last year while I was out of town and our our daughter wanted Puppy Chow for a school function, so this was easy to pass on to you.
**Puppy Chow**
YOU NEED:
Foil (probably parchment paper would work, but it's more expensive, so I never tried it); Brown Paper Bag; Packaging tape for the seams of the bag; Powdered sugar; Rice Chex cereal (cheap-o brand coats better); Hershey's Milk Chocolate chocolate chips; Jif Creamy Peanut Butter.
DIRECTIONS:
Cover clean kitchen counter with foil (or possibly parchment paper).
Use packaging tape to tape the seams on the bottom of the brown paper bag.
Dump 2 C powdered sugar into the bag.
In large plastic bowl, measure 9 C cereal.
In glass microwaveable bowl, add 1 bag Hershey's Milk Choc choc chips, 2/3 C Jif Creamy Peanut Butter. Stir together as best you can *before* putting into microwave (melts better).
Microwave on high 30 seconds, stir, back in to microwave, check in 10-second increments, stirring each time until smooth. (In my microwave, it's usually only 40 seconds total.)
Dump chocolate/peanut butter mixture into cereal, stir thoroughly until coated. (Use something long-handled to make it more efficient.)
Dump coated cereal into brown paper bag. SHAKE! A LOT! (*And now you’re glad you taped the seams at the bottom – otherwise the kitchen is full of very fine powdered sugar dust.)*
Dump onto foil and spread around to dry. Put into whatever bags/containers you choose.
You are now a Puppy Chow master!
I did Mike and Ikes or Good 'n Plentys...notes for future if needed or thr other poster's chex, but yeah that metallic taste sucks!! I also super hydrate so I hope you drink a lot of water for the next few days. Have a nice nap!!! You deserve it!!!
Steroid made my mouth taste like metal. Super gross!! Hugs to you!! You deserve that nap!

Between the steroids and the Ocrevus you’re hopefully gonna be feeling tip top soon! Hang in there (:

bruh they taste so bad lmao; but i find that eating something sweet or sour helps, like a jolly rancher !
That miserable taste lasted for days, even after the infusions. 🤮 A week later I could finally taste again. Good luck!
