Great article and interesting to see the path you took. Much better than cold turkey!
I like to believe in the idea of balance. A coffee is good every now and again... and tastes great! But I try not to become dependent every morning.
Good to hear you can eat anything now though!
If you have read much of my stuff you already know that I like to cook and have seen many of my favorite dishes. It's good to not to have to limit my eating or live by a bottle of antacid.
