It is true that your mom or grandma’s food tastes better
There is a common saying that food tastes better when it is made with love, and there is no denying that it feels true. However, there are some theories that argue that this is not just a feeling, and that food made by someone else actually tastes better than what you cook for yourself.
On the one hand, some psychologists say that this is due to the fact that you anticipate the taste of whatever you are cooking as you make it. On the other hand, when someone else prepares a sandwich for you, you only begin to experience its taste on the first bite.
