Hitting upon using pancake batter to bake pancake cupcakes recently (after a couple years of regular cupcakes and recently cornbread muffins) I've noticed words matter when giving food to people. To adults, pancake "muffins" are better than to the kids where I call them pancake "cupcakes." Same exact thing, just different terminology. Even mentioned it to a neighbor dropping some off for him and his kids, "They're pancake muffins to you, to your kids they're pancake cupcakes." He laughed.
Starting to think of this with all the things I eat liking or not liking them wondering if my distaste for something would change if it were called something I liked. Would I like "pea soup" more if it were called "vegetable soup?"
Recent beans commercial gave me the idea where kids aren't told the beans they like are a vegetable.
