Recently they started to feel wet and they now taste acid. Is there any way to stop or remedy this?

...taste?

I think you're referring to plastic sweating. If you have them in an enclosed container, particularly if it's a flimsy plastic container, this can happen.

Yes, I tasted them out of sheer curiosity because they felt strange, I regret that, but now I know they became acid.

I have them in a drawer where light doesn't hit them.

There's your problem. They are probably experiencing Plastic Sweating because they are enclosed. If you have a humid room, the heat can venelate in there (I hope I spelt that right :HEADHURTS:

) and cause the plastic to sweat. I suggest putting some AC on in there and leaving them out in the cool air for a while and then see if it helps.

Thanks, I'll try it and see if that helps.
