The Arba Minim represent four types of Jews. The Esrog smells good and tastes good. The Lulav itself has no fruit, but it has potential good taste, since it's part of a date palm. So many Jews are not really so "tasty" at the moment, but they would like to be "tasty", since they feel part of "tree", i.e., part of Klal Yisroel which produces "tasty" Torah.

ט עֲמוַּוּרְ אוַּכִיַטוֹבַַה'ַַתהליםַלדַט Serving Hashem tastes Gevaldig, but not everyone is holding there. But since he tries and wants and feels part of Klal Yisroel, he is plenty Chashuv. Indeed, in the Bracha we mention: ע לַנְַטִיל תַלוּל ב only the Lulav. Being potential and wanting and being part of is Gevaldig, and most of us are in this category.
