Google isn't the only source of translations:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_gustibus_non_est_disputandum
De gustibus non est disputandum is a Latin maxim. It means “there is no
disputing about tastes”, and is essentially equivalent to the English
expression "there's no accounting for taste". The implication is that
opinions about matters of taste are not objectively right or wrong, and
hence that disagreements about matters of taste cannot be objectively
resolved.
