I get those too. I get them from acidy foods like tomatoes and from walnuts and other things like that. They are a drag.

my dentist called it "geographic tongue". It's kind of a mystery to them but they told me note what foods trigger it and avoid them. I get them when I drink too much wine (either at one time or over a period of days) - bummer because I love wine. Oh well. They aren't any sign of anything bad, just irritating. Mine last about 3 days too.
