It makes intuitive sense, we all have to eat after all. How does (some) people's reactions of disgust towards others' food play into that though?
I'm thinking of the stereotypical English "None o' that foreign muck", or my own queasiness about eating snails; or some Indians' sensible and well-founded (in my view - being lactose intolerant in Ireland of all places) dislike of the dairy smell many Westerners have, etc.
How to overcome those reactions while broadening horizons?
