Episode 2699:

David Cameron-Smith delves into the powerful connection between taste and emotion, revealing how our taste buds influence behavior, memories, and overall well-being. He emphasizes the importance of understanding these connections to develop a balanced and enjoyable approach to healthy eating that respects both nutritional needs and the pleasures of food.

Quotes to ponder:

"It only takes a mouthful of some foods to trigger complex sensations and emotions."

"Understanding and harnessing the power of the deep-rooted connections between taste and our behaviors is never going to be solved by a ‘one fits all’ eating plan."

"Any plans for healthy eating will soon unravel if they revolve around eating tasteless, unappetising and boring foods."
