根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。
After spending hours cooking and preparing the table setting for your guests，you hope that everyone has a lovely time and enjoys the food. But it's not all about the skills of the cook—the dinnerware(餐具) also matters. The color of dinnerware can make the eaters feel differently while enjoying the food. So understanding the color psychology can help a home cook set the tone(基调) for different types of gatherings，from festival parties to home dinners. Here's how to use color psychology at your next dinner party.
Colors for picky eaters
Researchers at the University of Portsmouth found in a 2022 study that some people had different feelings about the food when they were served food with bowls in different colors. Picky eaters think that food in red and blue bowls tastes saltier than food in white bowls while the food in orange bowls tastes better. It's also less possible to them to try new food if it is served in a red bowl. So，if you have picky guests or if you want to offer new dishes，consider the color of the dinnerware first to keep everyone attracted.
Colors for children
If your guests are children，the rules may have a little change. A lot of dishes—red，yellow，blue and green—are preferred by children under the age of ten，with yellow being the least preferred by all，according to a 2018 study. For children over the age of 10，when tastes are changing，they are more likely to choose white dishes，behaving more like adults，says the research. So you will never worry if they are too noisy and cause any trouble.
Knowing this can help get your family to try new food or make your children's gatherings a success.
