596. More about the inhabitants of Jupiter
In regard to the taste of foods, they do not prepare foods for the taste, but for the use they have to their body. A food that is more useful to their body, is accordingly more savory to them, and seems sweeter. Consequently, they are not carried away by the sense of taste into luxuries that undermine the health of the body, causing the mind to suffer, which is sound in a sound body if the body is taken care of for the sake of the inward person. This is different from on our earth, where taste is in command, and so, the body becomes sick and the mind unsound.
