Question

____ is when you eat something because you like it, but then stop eating it because you become sick (have a bad experience)

Answer

Taste aversion is when you eat something because you like it, but then stop eating it because you become sick (have a bad experience)
classical conditioning
ex: You are eating cilantro and really like it but get sick from it. Then start hating cilantro. Also could be the chicken you were eating actually caused the sickness, but you started hating the cilantro anyways. Body connects the fact that the sickness was a result of food – not other attributes of the environment when you ate. You are more likely to get sick because of food, so the association is learnt quickly
