Do you find the thought of eating foods to be more appealing when they are in season?

There are movements to get people to eat only what is locally grown and in season. I am sympathetic to this, but that is not what this question is about.

Apart from any ethical or political concerns, I find peaches in winter or apples in the summer to be unappetizing. It is not related to the quality of the food. Even if it can be brought in fresh from the Southern Hemisphere, as is being done, I just have no interest in eating most things that are out of season. There are exceptions. I will use tomato sauce year round.

Is this a quirk of mine or are there others who feel this way? Is it possible that there is a biological component? One of the arguments given by those who practice macrobiotics is that we are adapted for eating what is local and in season? Is there any truth to this? It is not all that far fetched. There is a symbiotic relationship between most fruit bearing plants and animals that eat them, though I realize that there are many fruits that are harmful to humans that are eaten by other animals.
