In Ocarina of Time, the Gorons were on the verge of starvation when Ganondorf blocked the way to Dodongo's Cavern. The explanation they gave is that their tastes had become spoiled by the rocks in Dodongo's Cavern. But if there was another reason that even they don't seem to realize?
I propose the argument that Gorons get their nutritional value from rupees, not rocks.
First off, we know that rupees are a crystalized form of Force. In Breath of the Wild, the Great Fairies require rupees, or else they're reduced to cacoon forms. Rupoors take away rupees which wouldn't make sense unless they're negative energy cancelling out the energy of the rupees.
Now, in A Link Between Worlds, we find rupees deep in Death Mountain(inside of other rocks, too), and rupee ore is found in Eldin Volcano in Skyward Sword. Since these two volcanoes are plentiful with rupees, we can reasonably ascertain that this sets a precedence for Ocarina of Time's Death Mountain to also have plenty of rupees. Therefore I propose that the rupees inside of the rocks is what gives them nutrition/energy, and that it's not just a matter of pickiness; they cannot attain nutrition with rupeee-less rocks, and they will starve.
We also know that living creatures such as Rupee-likes can utilize the enrrgy from rupees, so do with that as you will.
