A nose is about half of that. It can detect chemicals in the air that the dog associates with food. The dog has no way of knowing it needs to ingest more vitamin B, for example.

except pretty much every animal can understand on some level what nutrients they might be missing and get cravings for those types of things

like, that's a basic survival instinct

There is no correlation between food cravings and nutritional needs. People short in vitamin C do not crave citrus fruits any more than people with sufficient vitamin C. Emotionally, we want there to be a correlation so that we feel justified in eating that half bag of Oreos (it must have contained some nutrient we needed).

Your body has very little feedback to your brain other than telling you to eat something or to drink.

yeah no one is saying "all cravings are related to nutrition" because obviously there's a lot of reasons to crave poo poo and huge endorphin rushes are a hell of a drug

but there's some evidence to suggest cravings can be triggered by nutritional deficiencies for some nutritional deficiencies
