I believe there were all kinds of trees that had fruit that was good to eat in the first part of the verse I see no reason to allegorize the second half of the verse. As for the tree having a mind of its own, I don't know what kind of herbs you have been enjoying lately but giving the tree a mind wasn't any part of what I said.
