Adherence

Habitual consumption of lower-fat food preparations (specifically roasted chicken) is inversely associated with the liking of high-fat food versions (full-fat chicken and pasta).

If you are trying to reduce fat intake, consistently choosing lower-fat preparations (like roasted chicken) may help retrain your taste preferences. Over time, you may find that full-fat versions taste less appealing or satisfying, making it easier to maintain a lower-fat diet.
