If there really was an "Eve" in this world, and her tasting the forbidden fruit was a taboo... then is the current situation also playing out a kind of taboo?

I’m wondering whether I should try the various foods in front of me—things I’ve only ever seen in e-books or old-world film clips.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8ZjTJL4X0
In the past, what I ate the most were filling staples like easily grown potatoes and nuts, along with artificially manufactured composite protein-based meat substitutes, supplemented daily with bland vitamins and supplements.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2jPngkEQ5
After all, these were the cheapest and touted as the most environmentally friendly, low-carbon foods.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjRnBm7t1o
To put it bluntly, these were foods suited for humans living like cattle.

The wealthy would never lecture you about sustainability.

Just look at where those eco-friendly slogans and propaganda usually appear—public bus stops, town squares, open markets, public restrooms. These aren’t places the rich frequent.

Even more ironic is how many charity fundraisers themed around environmental protection are just gatherings of the upper class indulging in lavish feasts, wasting the planet’s resources together.

Is this place I’m in now also some kind of high society?

Here, fruits of every color—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet—are laid out.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ0YDNTH6S
They’re real, whole fruits, not synthetic juices.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOdf9CWyyA
Cakes and desserts are piled up like small, colorful mountains, not vacuum-sealed ration bars.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfevoZQ1C2
All kinds of meats are served steaming hot, fragrant and enticing.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAGfj9Hd0Z
And then there’s seafood—some of which I’ve never even seen before.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlVoLY1Dlc
Have some of these already gone extinct?

Summoning my courage, I slowly chew a piece of cooked meat.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwWdrNAoCj
The texture is so strange!
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsp6Hw4EFV3
Because it’s so delicious!
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1zZDaaZ7j
This is the first time in my life I’ve tasted something this good!
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrt8bbiUa3
One thing leads to another.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4IGcNDrxc
Once you start, you can’t stop.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT72JP410D
As I keep eating, I lose track of what I’m even tasting anymore.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbizaKQNR1M
There’s just too much to choose from!

No wonder so many people here have such extreme body types—either obese or painfully thin.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxT9kFrdwL
The obese ones are like demons, greedily shoving food into their mouths.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOo0TQC3VX7
The thin ones wear expressions of disgust, pushing their utensils around the piles of food without any appetite left.

I keep eating... until suddenly, a wave of saltiness surges from my stomach up my throat—
