These are expressions, not single words, for if, for instance, you were talking about a food that most people didn't like at first but might eventually come to like, you could say "It's an acquired taste," or "it grows on you."

hi Khoff..thanks for replying..actually i'd come across the phrase "acquired taste" sometime ago and had forgotten the phrase, but not the meaning..i'd been racking my brain for the past several months to recollect that particular phrase(i'm not a native speaker of the language)..it's been a real relief to have been reminded of the phrase..thanks once again..
