Fascinating theory, and it makes good "horse" sense. I
have a question, however. What about those times when
the "food of choice" is not available? Throughout the
year the availability of different foods can change
dramatically (in the natural world, that is). What if
the slab of beef (or specific fruit or veggie) is what
the body desires, but is not available. Does the body
then signal a "second best" choice, or do you just
skip the meal?
