Douglas Copeland originally defined Gen X as starting ~1960. That tracks with Gen Jones - 1960-1964 - a boomer subset that had a very different experience from that of classic boomers. I have seen Obama described as a Gen X-er and he’s older than I am.
I de-sweetened my palate over time. I don’t add any sweetener to my yogurt (made in an Instant Pot) . That said, I ferment it for 8 hours because I don’t want it too tart. It’s perfect for raita or tzaziki. For breakfast uses, I add cheap vanilla flavoring with fresh fruit. Not scary at all!
