How many times did you have a chat after? You ‘re trying to persuade someone to do it, and they’re saying “No, I don’t like it.” You ‘re telling them how many times they’ve really done the stuff and finally they say they’ve never done it, but also believe the they know they don’t want it. That’s how many of us behave when it comes to food, and particularly healthy food.
The basic truth of balanced eating is that it means widening your repertoire a little bit. Most of us are going to have bellyache eating a new meal, but we prefer what we are used to.
The stuff we’ve consumed for years have once been new to us too, and the problem is one of being locked in our ways. You can get to know diversity better if you do something different every once and a while, and choose the same stuff you really want.
There is no use in slamming your head against a wall of bricks trying to cultivate a taste for what you don’t want. You’ll never know if you like it, though, until you finally try it. This is especially true with respect to international cuisine. This that look strange because it is consumed daily by millions of people, and it can hardly be harmful. Taking a leap of faith and trying another food will not be your death, so why not try something else once a week and surprise yourself how much you enjoy it?
