Humans' taste preferences for fatty substances would have conferred a survival advantage for our ancestors, but in our modern environment, where we have an overabundance of food, that preference can end up causing obesity and illness. What would an evolutionary psychologist say about this trend?

◦ It tends to occur when recessive genes mutate into dominant traits.
◦ It is an example of an adaptation that has become a liability.
◦ It is a consequence of genetic drift across several generations.
◦ It represents the paradox of inclusive fitness.
