from what I recall of Sartre it has little or nothing to do with taste.
for him the sense in which humans are free is transcendental, in the sense
that it is the condition of possibility needed to "make" a self. human is the
thing that makes free choices, hence the dog, the cat or the bird are not
free on any understanding of free that entails making choices.
Camus, from the dim understanding I had, claims that freedom is a different
kind of affair, it has to do with grasping the inherent absurdity of what
people are/do. One sense in which it could be spelled is the staunch
rejection of traditional or inherited notions of rights, wrongs, goodness,
etc.
