Why do people eat food that is rather unpleasant?
I don't mean grub that has gone off, I mean products that are specifically made with ingredients that produce a disagreeable reaction.
For example, sour sweets.
They are virtually impossible to eat without screwing your face up. It's a very natural reaction, and yet we continue to finish off the sweets regardless of the facial contortions.
Or extremely hot peppers in curries and sauces.
They physically get you gasping for water & cold air, waving your hands towards your mouth trying cool it down, and yet we continue to finish the dish regardless of the ongoing discomfort.
Why put up with this distress when you can very easily do without the products that cause it and favour foodstuffs that are pleasant instead.
