Taking food stimulates the three senses of taste, smell, and touch, creating an instant response whether to accept or reject it. Many foods' flavors are acceptable in their natural uncooked form; examples are bananas, berries, other fruits, nuts, milk, and a few vegetables. At the same time, other foods' flavors come from cooking, seasoning, flavoring, or combinations. Preference or avoidance of a particular taste is a learned behavior.
