inherited taste preferences  

Definición

  • The term inherited implies that certain preferences for the basic tastes, sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami, have a component that is genetic or innate. While both the environment, and biology influence preferences for both foods, and the basic tastes, there are some preferences which are thought to be primarily innate.
