The reason for having so many cooking recipes is hunger and boredom. But maybe that taste boredom comes from our nature telling us “move from here and find other place to live”

    Hence the taste boredom. I think it is our bodies telling us that something else must be eaten. But that comes from before farming so the answer to “change what you eat” is “change where you live”.

      Maybe the other way around? Like the genes that survived were the ones that coded for curiosity in terms of food; encouraging early humans to explore and find more nutrient rich food to feed bigger brains. So not that our bodies ‘told us’, but we selected for the humans with those genes, and they were the ones that won out in the end.
