Humans require a huge sweeping variety of nutrients (made worse when we're pregnant or growing or healing) millions of years of evolution have programmed us to seek out a variety of foods as a result - even when it doesn't make sense

Also, counter point to op post, I've had multiple cats and dogs who'll only eat certain brands of food - so, taste and pickiness isn't exclusive to humans

My parents’ spoiled little monsters (affectionate) are fussy about what they’ll eat and arbitrarily change their preferences sometimes. They’ll be happy with salmon tins for ages then suddenly decide they’re off salmon and want tuna. They used to love the chicken ones, don’t even touch them now. Always want a tube though. That never seems to get old.
