Description

We investigated the change of preference for the dislikable food during childhood of female college students majoring in food and nutrition. Eight out of 137 students were keeping from disliked foods. They include tomatoes, liver, fish, celery, green peace, natto (fermented soy beans), green onion. Most of them had changed their preference for the disliked food when they were in from junior high school to college. Main reason for the change of food preference were 1) the disliked food eaten by chance was delicious, 2) long avoiding time from their un-favorite food, 3) mandatory eating. The results suggested that the disliked food during childhood may have changed from dislikable to favorite, according to physical, psychological, and social development. A lot of food experience are needed to overcome the disliked food.
