Which when i first try it

And actually now i really love it
How about you a similar story to me with olives
I used to really hate olives
But as i've grown older
I've also going to love them
Well in this episode will be learning from food experts about why there are some food from food just perit
And whether it's possible to learn to love them
Yes and as usual you can find a transcript for this episode along with all the vocabulary and worwork sheet on our website bbc learning english dococom okay the question for you becka yes word means to have a fear of new things
Such as trying new foooois it a every pphobia b clusstphobia or see nephobia
Well now i'll go for see or phobia
Because neo sounds like new that's clever thinking
But let's see
So though genreands
Some experts have said that we can teach ourselves to like new things
Brooth
Alexanda ask stop to dana small of mmgille university
Now are dislike of certain foods comes from in this bbc world service program
The food chain off food dislikes learned or genetic hardwide in some way at both
So there's many reasons
Why you can dislike a food of for example
You could via genetics
Smell corriander or kiss koreana differently
But so that's genetic
But there's also a really strong learning component dina explains that how we taste or smell something can be different depending on our genetics
However
How we taste or smell something can also be island roof asked if a dislike for certain food is hard wired and dona confirmed this is sometimes the case
The adjective hard wired describes automatically thinking or behaving in a particular way for instance
Because it's genetic and dena says
That you could taste food differently to others via genetics
The preposition via means the way of
Of by the use of for example i get to work via a tratraso
There are lots ts different
Different reasons
Why we dislike some foods
But can we change that let's listen to dietician are
Are forms and wood explaplaing on the bby y cleservice program
The food chain one of the the really good techniques
That
That we might use is something called masks
Where you did a food
That you don't like into something that you do like for those parents who really say they like everything we actually get chocolate covered insects
And 嗯
We are for those and actually people do it them and try them
And i think it's the concept
That it's an insect but usually they find that once they eat it
There isn't anything sometimes pleasant ant about it is little bit like eating just a bit of cruunch chocolate clair uses masking
Masking is the act of stopping something from being
Being en in cllares clinic
She masks the dislike food oods ds somethat eat it
Yes
And what parents usually find out is that the food they dislike isn't inherently about it
So inthe b inherently describes something unpleasant in a way
Which is natural or essential
So insects aren't inherently unpleasant to eat some of us think they are because the concept of eating them could be strange to us
Culfully we talked about how people sometimes fear trying new food
Clair talks about where these fears might come from prince
Just just say that you had adis and goes in the past
And you um had become unwell from eating them
You know to have what you call a dodgy
Paul there's a good chance that you might actually associate that with eating the poror and think oh
Don't want to eet to pon again
Because it's going
Going make
Make me unwell
So that's a sort of fear based appointance
Cllair said that you're likely to have a fear of a food
If you've had a bad experience with it
She uses the example of eating a dodgy prone which would make you unwell
If something is dodgy
It's generally bad or has a bad reputation
But when we talk about food
It could mean that it's undercooked old was been left out
Therefore making you sick in fact
We may avoid dodgy things
To avoid is to keep away from something so avoidance is the act of keeping away
Now new that reminds me of the question
We asked earlier
Yes
I asked you what word means to have a fear of new things
And you answered see neeophobiand and becca
And ased to say your answer was correct
So my thinking was right
That's great
Now let's have a recap of the language
We've land in this episode starting with hard wired
Which describes automatically thinking or behaving in a particular way and of genetics for example
Viire is a preposition
That means by way off or by use of we had masking that's hiding or stopping something from being seen the adverb inherently describes something that exists in a way
Which is natural or essential
We also had avoidance
That is the act of keeping away from something
And finally when we talk about food dodgy means something that can make you unwell once again are six minutes or up
