A relatively ordinary meal....

....can be made to sound delicious, with a few well chosen adjectives. Provided the person due to eat it is hungry enough and the food doesn't look bad, that enticing description may be sufficient to imbue the dish with 'special desirability' even when it arrives at the table.



When we think something is going to be good, it takes a lot to persuade us that it isn't. And when our expectations are negative, the reverse of course applies.
