The original research on taste aversion was conducted by Garcia. It is primarily (in humans) used to explain why patients receiving chemotherapy become averse to eating the foods they eat shortly after receiving a treatment. The belief is that because the radiation makes the patient sick they associate the feeling with the food rather than the hospital (presumably) where they receive treatment. The theory goes that the brain can more easily associate taste and sickness than location and sickness. Evolutionarily, this makes sense because you are more likely to get sick from bad food than being in a certain place. This association can be made for some time after the irradiation takes place, up to around 24 hours if memory serves. A common treatment is to give the patient a bitter tasting liquid after the chemo session. The patient then associates this bitter taste with the treatment rather than the meal he or she eats afterwards.
