Yes. If you've ever been to a high end restaurant with schmorgusboard or at a person's house that has prepared a beautiful buffet with lots of finger foods it's the color that the food is or the decorations around the food. I always use orange/apple slices around certain foods; sometimes cucumbers and tomatoes for other foods and for seafood I slice up lemon/lime with watercress or parsley. The colors are brilliant and make the food more appealing. If you are preparing a meal for guests and you are a good cook then you would know that the dinner would need color. Example: Serving a salmon dinner. You could bake the salmon in the oven or BBQ it and once on the platter put very thin layers of cucumber to cover the fish, but the cucumber is thin enough to see the skin underneath. Then around the platter the fish is on surround it with parseley, lemon slices and a few thicker slices of cucumber. You could serve baked potatoes that have been scooped out, milk added, some chives or onions and replace in the skin of the potato, salt pepper and topped with grated cheese and fresh crushed bacon. Vegetable are always a must for color so some nice honeyed carrots (orange in color) or some baked sweet peppers, along with asparagus (green) or peas. A nice tossed salad layered with strawberries, mango with a honey dressing or an onion dressing. When you see this on the dinner table the colors and decorations on the platters have the guest's mouths watering and they savor every mouthful. Presentation of a buffet or any meal (as you will notice is good restaurants) should be appealing to your guest's eyes.

Be sure too put a lot too incase they will come to your house everyday;) Once happened.

Yes, research suggests that the color of food and drink can influence our perception of taste and flavor. For example, studies have shown that people may perceive drinks as sweeter if they are colored with artificial coloring, even if the taste is the same. The color of food can also affect our expectations and enjoyment of the food.

Does food color affect taste?

It really depends on what brand of food colouring you use and the amount. Also, colour can affect the way you taste some things i.e. if you drunk some Pineapple Juice that was purple it might taste different because the colour is masking the flavour. This is all because sight and colour affects the way you taste things :)

Does the color of a food affect the way people think it will taste?

yes if you lookd at a black tomato would you eat it? Blue is the least appetising color and red is the most. Also, Heinz tried marketing a purple ketchup, thinking kids would find it cool, but no one would eat it, including kids, even though there was no discernable difference in taste.

Does vision affect the sense of taste?

People look at food and have an idea of how it might taste. They know certain flavor should taste a ceratin way, and certain textures should feel a certain way. Also, some things look more appealing. If something looks gross, the brain is already apt to think that it also tastes bad, too.
