Is junk food really more delicious than healthy
?
? The researchers point out that it all depends on cultural ideas.Is unhealthy "junk food" really more delicious than healthy
?
? The researchers reveal that the answers are all in our culture.study, published in the Journal of Food Quality and Preferences, looked at cross-cultural differences in food taste, with particular attention to the link between certain foods and the concept of "taste" in France and the United States.the School of Management in Grenoble, France, with
.
researchers led by Vivier reveal that France and the U.S. have different views on delicious foods -- many Americans link unhealthy food choices to dark tastes, while the French do."Recent studies have shown that a factor explains the intuition that favors high-calorie foods as 'unhealthy
and
forious,'" the researchers explained, noting that previous studies have shown that U.S. consumers tend to over-consume foods as unhealthy because they spontaneously and unconsciously think they are more delicious than healthy foods., the team notes that the findings do not apply to people in many other countries, including France.Werle
and her team revealed: "Our study is the first to show that the opposite intuition exists in France: unhealthy foods are spontaneously associated with bad taste, and healthy foods are associated with deliciousness. Theytheir findings mean that a "healthy" food package can have different effects in different cultures., such labels may have a good effect on the taste of French consumers, who may find the product unsoppable, " the researchers added. Future research should solve this problem. thestudy details the authors explain that their findings suggest that the intuition of 'healthy
-
-delicious' dominates in France, while previous studies have identified 'unhealthy' and
'delicious
American views may vary from culture to culture."These results expand previous studies of cross-cultural differences in food because they show that there is a stronger and sometimes contradictory underlying correlation with explicit beliefs: even participants who consider unhealthy foods to be delicious have strong underlying intuitions about
and
deliciousness," the researchers revealed, noting that a second study showed that a neutral food described as healthy was considered more tasty, more enjoyable, and had better quality than when it was described as unhealthy.theory, this study expands the understanding of food tastes in terms of cross-cultural differences," the authors added. It proves that the potential link between food taste and health is the opposite in France and the United States. This may be a potential explanation for the different developments of obesity in both countries. " the French paradox?"Werle
clear evidence that people in France and the United States have very different social relationships and different food performance. For example, the 'French Paradox': It points out that although French people eat more unhealthy foods
e.g. more butterthan Americans, they have lower levels of obesity and fewer heart problems."Understanding the
food culture and happy eating is a possible way to understand what food tastes like," Werle said. Therefore, different links to food in each country may be the cause of differences in adult life. ”
