With all of the advancements made on this world, how have we not been able to make zero or low calorie amazingly tasting food like chocolate chip cookies!?!

If the nose and tongue could be easily lied to, we would have fallen victim to starvation and malnutrition a long time ago.

Because complex starches have caloric value????? You could, theoretically, probably make a chocolate chip cookie with things that are basically made to be digested around. Who is “we”????????
Because food is organic material. When ingested, your body uses this organic material as a source of energy (calories) and building blocks.
Organic material has an incredibly complex chemical structure which is difficult to replicate entirely.
There are certain things like artificial sweeteners, but that’s a long way away from completely replicating an entire food stuff.
At the end of the day, if you’re not getting calories from that cookie, means it’s not getting digested, which means it’s going to affect the body in other ways because it’s there, it’s not going to vanish into thin air.
There’s a question of how our bodies would react to these artificially made chemical compounds that make a fake cookie. i.e. it’s very questionable whether that would be healthier.
Remember that there aren’t really healthy or unhealthy foods. There are healthy and unhealthy diets. A cookie is not unhealthy per se. Cookies are bad when you eat too much of them on a regular basis, and as a consequence screw up your overall micronutrient, macronutrient, and calorie balance.
Any attempt so far to manufacture “healthier” versions of foods so far have failed. One of the most prominent examples was the attempt to use hydrogenated oils in form or margarine as a replacement for naturally occurring fats, which was a stupid idea based on ignorance about dietary fats at that time.
Turns out, a diet based on naturally occurring nutrients and foods is pretty much the best way to go. Who would have thought?

“Basically because fat is the vehicle of taste”. Answered me a chef when I asked this very same question.

We have, right?
Take a zero-sugar strawberry flavored chewing gum, chew it, and swallow.
That’s what you are describing.
