Everything we eat is an acquired taste. I use SILK (a soy product) as a milk substitute on my cereal in the morning. I don't kid myself that SILK tastes like milk. It doesn't. It tasts like... SILK, a soy by-product. Once I got that concept through my head I was ok with the way it tasted. I would predict that we will acquire a whole subset of new culinary tasts that we will become accustomed to. Hopefully, the newer generation of food stock will be healthier for us to consume as well.
