If Adam and Eve were not hunter-gatherers, then they were certainly gatherers. But, then, consumer desire, or self-embitterment, or the 'itch,' as Schopenhauer called it, appeared in the shape of the serpent.

Wants supplanted needs, and things have been going downhill ever since.

The forbidden fruit was not scattered throughout the garden, not in many places, not in multiple locations, but one place, one site, one location and one location only. Perhaps they just came upon it, Oh, look, the forbidden fruit or, perhaps, they were looking for something, searching, shopping.
