Food is sensual. It can appeal to all the human senses, sight, smell, sound, and touch. Entire poems have been written about the sensual qualities of a vegetable or fruit. But, how often does one consciously experience it that way? People describe the same food in their own way, some with enthusiasm and others more matter-of-factly. Sensory perception of food can be different among people. What makes one think about the sensual qualities of food? Is it an inherent trait? or, is it acquired?
