Do you believe looks affect flavor?
Depends on what ingredients were used to change the look.
yes, it's been known for a long time that colors can affect your mood and perception of things. it's also probably subjective though. someone who has grown up eating artificially dyed foods might find them appealing, but someone who hasn't might find the unnatural hues unappetizing.
occasionally when i'm grocery shopping, there will be hawaiian punch on sale that they put near the center of the store. seeing all the colors makes me feel strange.
Cheese got the looks that kill

it looks like they're worshipping the homosexual satan from south park
yes
food is 81% psychological
You can test it yourself, close your eyes and eat a skittle from the bag without looking and try to guess what flavor it is.

That was a comedy sketch or a scene from a movie. I forget which.
I had a blue black/white gold dress moment with the thumbnail.
Thought this was a thread about beef jerky.
it very well could.
>Rangel and his colleagues had 20 volunteers taste five wine samples which, they were told, were identified by their different retail prices: $5, $10, $35, $45, and $90 per bottle. While the subjects tasted and evaluated the wines, their brains were scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI. The subjects consistently reported that they liked the taste of the $90 bottle better than the $5 one, and the $45 bottle better than the $35 one. Scans of their brains supported their subjective reports; a region of the brain called the medial orbitofrontal cortex, or mOFC, showed higher activity when the subjects drank the wines they said were more pleasurable. There was a catch to the experiment, however. Although the subjects had been told that they would taste five different, variously priced wines, they actually had sampled only three. Wines 1 and 2 were used twice, but labeled with two different prices. For example, wine 2 was presented as the $90 wine (its actual retail price) and also as the $10 wine. When the subjects were told the wine cost $90 a bottle, they loved it; at $10 a bottle, not so much. In a follow-up experiment, the subjects again tasted all five wine samples, but without any price information; this time, they rated the cheapest wine as their most preferred.

Exactly this. Although the ingredients are most likely the same, I remember trying to eat a hot dog with green ketchup and couldn't do it.

I still don't know wtf Heinz was thinking. Shit came out when I was a kid and I was still horrified by purple/green ketchup.

Do you think that could be done with whisky as well?
it won't effect flavour but it could effect your desire to put it in your mouth.
and that's why I shave my bits
