Abstract.
The aim of the research is to determine the specifics of euphemisation in contemporary English-language gastronomic discourse. Scientific novelty of the research lies in studying the insufficiently explored euphemisation sphere and revealing the current trends in gastronomic linguistic culture. The authors ana-lyse such motives for the euphemistic renaming of gluttonyms as taboos, political ideology, political cor-rectness and the concept of ecological awareness. The research findings have shown that euphemisation due to social, religious or cultural taboos is a permanently relevant incentive for gastronomic neologisms creation. The practice of the political renaming of English-language gluttonyms reflects the latest changes
in political views and is explored in terms of cancel culture. It has been found that euphemisation within
the framework of political correctness dictates a variety of restrictions, from replacing discriminatory racist and sexist nominations to banning products recognised as environmentally unfriendly, unhealthy, inhumane to animals and contributing to climate change.
