Food seems to taste better when someone prepares it for you

The thing obonyanii




A large part of taste sensations when receiving the food depends on the sense of smell. When we prepare food, the cooking time for getting used to the smell. Thus, when you are preparing food for yourself, and then you eat it, it's like tasting food in which the sense of smell is almost not used.

If someone cooks for you, and you are in another room, and, accordingly, can not smell, the food you will find a very different taste than if you prepare the same dish yourself. If you do not feel the smell of cooking, you get to enjoy both a new taste and a new scent, so that your dish will seem much tastier.

The same principle works with the rest of the day before a meal. Did you ever hear the saying that some of the dishes the next day become tastier. The point is that usually uneaten food stored in the refrigerator, so that they have almost no smell, if not warm up - this is the scientific explanation of why your pizza sometimes seems to you the next day taste better than the day before.
