I just want to point out that I have low-value-value-on-variety only when it comes to food preferences. :D

Other areas of my life are full of variety and I'm always seeking out more.

Also, just to expand on what's happening here...

Whenever I have new dishes for whatever reason, I don't automatically dislike them because they're something new. For example, I recently found out how much I like red onions on a cold cut sandwich. I think what goes on in my specific case is that there are lots of things that I don't eat now that I would probably like, but eating food I like consistently (by sticking to the things I know) is more important to me than finding the foods I haven't tried but may like.

Of course, these aren't absolutes. I will from time to time become tired of something and try something new.
