Eating Psychology with Betty 101

Episode 1 | 26m 30sVideo has Closed Captions

Are your food likes and dislikes hard wired?

While a common assumption is that we either like or dislike a food, and this is genetic, actually very few of our food preferences are hard-wired. This episode covers the known genetically-based preferences. We also discover that some people are supertasters, meaning they experience taste more intensely due to their genetics.
