Strong's says the word can also be translated as "pleasant."

The
good for food is the same as the tree of
good and evil. And God declares each day of His creation
good, or very
good.
It's all the same
good. The same word.
In other words, the forbidden fruit was
GOOD for food. Not poison.
And what happened after eating it was not just disobedience. Their eyes were opened. They could see like gods.
What could cause something like that?
