It's a lot easier sentiment to have when all you have to do is look exasperated, wave your hands, and the broken space ship levitates.

Not to get too serious, but there's two very distinct different definitions of "try" being implicated here, basically it's the difference between "sampling" something and "attempting" something. I've always found the notion of an "acquired taste" to be somewhat comical.
