When I first tried root beer I hated it, but overtime loved it. Same thing with regular beer. How does this work? Why does something we hated suddenly become appealing?
In: Biology
The brain is very adaptive. Certain tastes the brain interprets that they should be avoided because they are new and potentially hazardous to the body. However the brain is predisposed to want to be “happy”. So if you regularly expose yourself to these types of tastes and learn nothing bad is happening then the brain will turn those “warning” feelings into “happy” feelings as that is the preferred feeling.
