Watching someone look disgusted while they eat raw broccoli can make people more likely dislike the vegetable and not try it for themselves , according to a new study.
A UK research team said humans learn which behaviour pays off and which doesn’t from watching others.
Based on this, society can draw conclusions about how to act – or eat.
In the case of the latter, people may use each other as guides to determine what and how much to eat.
This is called social modelling and is one of the most powerful social influences on eating behaviour.
In the new study, researchers from Aston University investigated whether observing the facial expressions of people eating raw broccoli influenced young women’s liking and desire to eat raw broccoli.
In just over 200 young women watched a video containing clips of different adults consuming raw broccoli.
While eating, the models displayed either a positive smiling expression, stayed neutral, or pulled a disgust like negative face.
The researchers examined only women’s reactions since gender differences may exist within the modelling of eating behaviour, and modelling effects can be different among women and men.
Exposure to models eating broccoli while conveying negative facial expressions resulted in a greater reduction in liking ratings.
But watching others eating a raw vegetable with a positive facial expression did not increase an adult’s vegetable liking or eating desire.
One possible explanation may be that avoiding any food – irrespective of whether it is commonly liked or disliked – that appears disgusting can protect us from eating something that tastes bad or is harmful.
Another reason may be that smiling while eating is perceived as an untypical display of liking a certain food.
