My issue is that I seem to only like about 5% of ingredients. So that gets exponentially out of hand pretty quick the more ingredients something has. Although not every "wrong" ingredient immediately ruins something. Some are tolerable, and some even completely redeem themselves in specific combinations.
So basically, more ingredients just vastly complicates things. When I find a complicated food that I do happen to like, I lock it down and make sure I can make it exactly the same every time so that it never potentially slips out of that comfort zone. Cuz it really sucks when you put an hour or more of work into something and then finally take that first bite, and either have to give the rest away or throw it in the garbage.
