We're omnivores so we don't find low calorie plants to be the most appealing all the time because we won't thrive on that. Just eating high calorie food ends up not being good either though, tastes best to have a mix of both.

Because for all of human history until the last century or so, food was scarce enough that starvation as a bigger threat than obesity. Your body evolved to encourage you to eat high calorie foods so you would have a reserve of fat to keep you alive in times of famine.

I love them. Venison is superior to cattle that stand in their own shit until their untimely death.

But yes, they are not intelligent creatures. Millions die every year from road collisions. There's a reason the term "deer in headlights" is an apt metaphor.

Because fat enhances flavour and fat has lots of calories. Also humans like the taste of sugar, which also has lots of calories.
