Evolution

There are always reasons, emotional
and logical. And once upon a time
when we were young we refused to
eat things we had no appetite for because
...well, just because we had no appetite
for them. We became far more reasonable
as we matured and found those food
items appetizing after all. And then
something strange happened, we went
beyond maturity into old age and funny
thing that, old age returned us to where
it all began. Now, unfinished plates are
removed from the dinner table, heavy
with vegetables. On the other hand
healthy protein like salmon can be
found edible if it is a) barbecued and
b) liberally sprinkled with a special 
seasoning combination originally meant
to make meat palatably irresistible.
This does not mean that the salmon,
treated similarly becomes irresistible
but that much of it may be eaten since
to resist demonstrates the child in us.
