What’s the first thing that you notice when passing your favorite restaurant? The smell of fresh pizza? Or the sight of your favorite desserts? Food that looks and smells good will probably taste good, but what about sound?

Scientists now believe that the taste of food can change when you hear different sounds, but it has to be the right sound. When you mm on a microwave with popcorn in it, it soon starts to pop. Do you think “That sounds tasty!”? Not really, you probably think it’s nearly ready. But when you smell it, you know it is delicious. Hearing the popcorn makes you think about it, but smelling it tells you that it tastes good. So what are the sounds to change the tastes of the things?

In an experiment in a fish restaurant, customers listened to the sound of the seaside while eating. Did it make a difference? Yes. Listening to the seaside seemed to improve the taste of the food. It was fresher and saltier. When the restaurant tried the same experiment with the sound of the farm animals, there was no difference in taste. The results are useful for restaurants. Perhaps they will use fewer unhealthy things like sugar and salt in food. With the right music or sounds, we won’t taste the difference.

Restaurants are also setting a connection between food and the sound that the packet makes. Pick up a packet (包装袋) of potato chips, what does it sound like? Experiments show that the packet making a right sound will make customers think the potato chips are fresher .So one restaurant recently changed the material that they used to make their potato chip packets. Another idea is that a list of music will begin to appear on food packets, so if you don’t like your green vegetables, the right music or sounds could help you learn to love them.
