Should I feel a way?

I am haitian and every New Years, all Haitians have a delicious soup that we call Soup Joumou to represent and celebrate our freedom since 1804. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 4 years and he refuses to try it. He is American. Mean while I have coworkers and friends of different nationalities requesting bowls. I see other people significant others indulging in the soup because it is part of their partners culture. Should I feel a way because he wont even try the soup?
