Food writer Hsiao-Ching Chou points out to the various food-related prejudices of people in one of her articles.
What appeals is the fact that despite of having diversified experience about culinary cultures, foodies tend to give a constipated look at local foods that are seemingly inedible to them.
Food prejudice blinds the consumer to the fact that the word ‘weird’ is as relative as the concept of differing tastes is relative in nature. The safest option as claimed by the foodies is to keep food biases strictly personal. But Chou says:
It would be easy to say, ‘Eat and let eat.’ But the reality is not so straightforward. Sometimes we forget to chew before we swallow.
