how pyschological is our pickiness to food.

RE: how pyschological is our pickiness to food.
There may be an anthropological aspect to cultural food preferences: Say you have two clans, one doesn't eat tapirs, one doesn't eat monkeys...they can live in the same forest without competing for meat. What the 'forbidden foods' are doesn't really matter, as long as each group has some that don't overlap. Of course this is highly speculative, but groups with such an unconscious 'non-compete clause' would have fewer reasons for conflict and more survivors due to less feuding and war.

It really happened to the extent, there isn't any food I have ate from sometime after (like a few months) that day but I enjoy.

Food even that I hated most, are some of my favorites now.

If I achieved the same results praying to Vishnu, what would you make of that? I would think it supports the psychological explanation for how you were able to get yourself to like food you previously rejected.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
