Animals don't taste the same way we do. For example, cats don't have the receptors for tasting sweet things...so they can barely detect sweetness at all.
Dogs only have 25% as many taste buds as humans, so most things have a very mutes taste for them. Plus, every dog I've ever had absolutely LOVED cat shit covered in kitty litter, so I never put much faith in their sense of taste.
Yeah, they'll have flavors they like more or less, just like us, but even we can't trust our sense of taste as a metric for nutrition...if we could, we'd all be addicted to brocolli and spinach instead of processes foods and sugar.
How do you know that the only reason you don't like cat shit is because you have a cultural revulsion to it?
My wife fucking loves coagulated blood. Like just big old chunks of blood which was packed into casings and boiled until it became a massive chunk of scab. Meanwhile I legit cannot be in the same room with it. As far as I'm concerned it might as well be cat shit
I recall seeing in a special card at a Chinese restaurant “Pigs Blood with Mixed Vegetable”. Sounds awful to me but some people must like it.
