The main quality of Rajas is an eagerness to act and accomplish, born out of an insatiable thirst for wealth and possessions, which is also expressed in their preference for food.
All extreme flavors are favorable to them, such as bitter, sour, salty, very hot, pungent, dry, and burning foods, which produce pain, sorrow, and disease.
In contrast, the nature of Tamas is inactivity and laziness born of ignorance and delusion, which is expressed in their choice of food.
They tend to consume unhealthy and inedible food that is not properly cooked, lacking in essence, putrid, stale, and even ort, which is unfit for rituals and sacrifice.
It is also true that when one consumes food that is of one of the three qualities of nature, it will enhance that quality in the psyche of the person.
