O A. Gregor did not like the taste of the milk.
Explanation:
Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" is about the shocking transformation of Gregor Samsa into an insect. The short story seems to focus on the theme of isolation, aloofness, and the inability to socialize.
The one element that shows that Gregor's transformation is more than physical is that he detests the taste of milk.
