Thats the thing Pint, desires are in every animal, not just humans. It's probably a self preservation instinct we have evolved with so we become attracted to whats safe. (If it were due to this fellow god as you speak of we would only have a desire for dates) A lot of what we're attratced to these days isn't natural, it man made and usually full of sugar, because most people are attracted to sweet, which can also become addictive. They have it all worked out. Hence everything in moderation.
