Instinct i guess? The digestive tract is a chem lab that analyzes the nutrient content, among others. You’ve eaten it once, you get a craving once you require something of it.

So they go around eating plants they don’t know to see if they like them and get a craving for them later? Doesn’t seem very crocodile-like

Well, at least human children do that.
