Neither your example or the start of the thread seem like anthropomorphizing. Both "liking" the taste and "enjoying" outdoors or exercise are well established reactions in numerous animals.

I do agree with your point regarding g mammalian comparisons, but it's not clear to me that was demonstrated.
