Our bodies need calories for energy and sweet foods contain glucose, which has 4 calories per gram and greasy foods contain fat, which has 9 calories per gram, and are often also accompanied by proteins, which not only have 4 calories per gram, but the amino acids that compose proteins can be used by our bodies to construct the proteins our bodies need to thrive and grow. Foods that are sugary and sweet are good sources of glucose, which is very easily adapted by the body to energy, which is perfect when you need that quick energy boost to escape the lion that's been stalking you and has finally decided you'd make the perfect meal. Greasy foods are good sources of fat and proteins, which can be stored by the body long-term to help survive harsh winters or other lean times. In the times before food processing and refinement, these kinds of foods were not easy to come by and so we have evolved to easily recognize foods that contain these important sources of energy, aka they taste good.
SWEET FOODS
Sweet foods and greasy foods contain high levels of calories and energy, which were beneficial for our ancestors to survive and thrive. Our brain is wired to find these foods pleasurable as a way to encourage consumption of high-calorie foods for energy storage. This is known as the evolutionary drive for seeking out sweet and fatty foods.
Some junk foods that start with the letter "H" include hamburgers, which are often high in calories and fats, and hot dogs, which can be processed and high in sodium. Other examples are hash browns, typically fried and greasy, and honey buns, which are sugary pastries. These foods are popular for their convenience and taste but are often not the healthiest options.
both actually because they are both greasy foods and popular for humans to eat and enjoy

Sweet taste is characterized by a pleasant sensation on the taste buds, often described as sugary or honey-like. It is typically associated with foods containing sugar or other natural sweeteners, and is perceived as pleasurable by most individuals.
No, sweet and sour are two different tastes on the flavor spectrum. Sweetness is generally associated with a pleasant taste often found in sugary foods, while sourness is a tangy taste that can be found in foods like citrus fruits or vinegar.
Savory foods are those that have a rich, umami flavor and are often salty or meaty. They are different from sweet foods, which are sugary, and spicy foods, which have a hot or pungent taste. Savory foods are typically more hearty and satisfying, while sweet foods are more dessert-like and spicy foods have a kick of heat.
Kids think sugary drinks taste best, but sugar in drinks increases obesity.
Taste buds are fully developed at around 10 years old. However, taste preferences can continue to evolve and change throughout life due to factors such as exposure to different foods, cultural influences, and aging.
Sweat; to perspire. Sweet ; a sugary 'confection'.
Faulty?? I'd call it undeveloped, deficient, or just missing. An unactivated gene. Think of a wild cat's natural diet. Carnivorous. Mostly small animals. A cat has no (natural) need to be able to detect sweet or sugary foods. Such an ability would be redundant. No need. No adaptive value. No evolutionary advantage.
