Learning about taste in a culinary vs. non-culinary context

With non-original foods:

And the mother gives in to the child’s insistence:

Each time the child bites into a new pain au chocolat, they experience almost the same flavor: they thus learn that pain au chocolat tastes like pain au chocolat, and that every time they want a pain au chocolat, they can enjoy the same taste of pain au chocolat.

Counter-example with the original foods:

And the mother gives in and gives a fig to the child, who bites into it with gusto:

The next day, the same figs seem delicious to the same child:

Thus The child learns that they cannot intellectually determine whether figs will be good or bad; they structure their sense of self around questioning, observing their own body, and obeying a natural law that surpasses their ability to predict.

For more details on the consequences of this difference in the structuring of the self, see the page: Alliesthesia and Paranoia.
