why does good food taste bad and bad foods taste good?

Answer 1

because your body is used to artifical flavours, additives, fats, high amounts of sugars and salts, and your taste buds have adapted to those flavours.
while good food is low in fat, high in fiber,etc and contains rich amounts of vitamins and minerals etc. vegetables also contain a certain amount of bug feecies which your body isnt use to and tastes buds arent used to.
i love good food! not bad food. Bad food = yucks, bad taste, unhealthiness and uglyiness.
good food = good taste, healthy lifestyle, and loving yourself.

Answer 2

I think all food tastes good, especially good for you stuff! It's a question of your palette getting used to it. If all you're used to is artificially flavoured, processed rubbish then you won't appreciate the taste of good old-fashioned, healthy nutritious ingredients! Plus if 'bad' food is more appealing because it's been labelled that way - the fact is we always want what's bad for us!!

Answer 3

I don't think that's true, except maybe "bad food tastes good" as in some yummy (but moldy) blue cheese. But good food doesn't taste bad.

Answer 4

your taste buds have blown obviously! take yourself off processed foods for a couple of weeks, eat fresh produce and then see what happens. i can assure you will not feel the same. your taste buds will appreciate the taste of food. then go and eat something processed, you will be able to taste salt, fats and then the indescribable!the sensation will be unpleasant
