It's a mystery

>spend an hour caramelizing onions, season and sear the beef, use the onions and fond and wine to make a beef gravy, cook the beef in the gravy slowly, and serve with garlic mashed potatoes to parents
"It's alright."
>They put unseason ground beef in an air fryer until it's overcooked and smother it in packet gravy
"Mmmmm now this is delicious!"
>Fry up recently cured applewood streaky bacon to perfection in a pan
"It's alright."
>They use a shitty unitasker to microwave-steam bacon that smells like it was dunked in liquid smoke until the meat is charcoal while the fat is still white
"This bacon is incredible!"

Is it possible that if you eat bland disgusting food all your life you start liking it more than properly seasoned and cooked food?
My family seems to have the culinary palette of a housecat.
