Varying Taste also has an evolutionary advantage. Things would be pretty tricky and overly competitive if we all liked the same foods. The fact that different people prefer different foods means there is less competition and needless fighting. Its a huge advantage that we have developed to be omnivorous.
Whenever we go to a wedding or some such where there is a buffet its a standing joke in our house that between my wife and I there is barely a single item in common on our respective plates. Basically I go for al the meats and she goes for all the veggies. When I go add veggies to my plate it tends to be the 2 things my wife avoids - namely coleslaw and potato salad.
Of course, were we starving we'd eat whatever we could get out hands on. Tastes and preferences take a second seat to survival.
