That's probably a big part of it.  Most (US) families have
diets that were the result of their (european?) ancestors
eating styles.  So, what the folks in one house found acceptable
may be entirely different from that for folks in another.

Even if the principals in those houses came from the same
original family!

I can recall sharing meals I'd prepared with friends, at
school, and they looked at their plate as if to say, "What
the hell is THIS?"  Yet, it would have been a common
meal in the household in which I was raised.

Some of the foods that I grew up with I was later exposed to
prepared in a different manner.  Same food, radically different
taste!  How much of that do we lay at the foot of the preparer?

Also, it's worth noting that one can be tolerant of a
particular food without actually DESIRING it.  Else, we
would all be eating pizza and ice cream for every meal!
