I took a big swig of chocolate soy milk at age 35.

Call it free association, but my first reaction was "Ugh! Baby formula!"

I called my mother to see if she could explain the connection.

Mom revealed that I was breastfed until 3 months. She switched me a soy formula due to mastitis.

I find it remarkable that I knew what I was tasting despite the fact that at 3 months, I wasn't verbal.
