I wonder if the cockroach thing is evolution/selection in action... The cockroaches that preferred sweet all fell for the bait got killed. I believe high protein diets cause roaches to make, so those that weren't drawn to sweets lived and were more likely to reproduce. Maybe it's not that they adapted or their tastes changed, just that certain ones survived with given traits.
