Ah, but we know the difference there is that I’m sure you can appreciate the flavour of good steak and good cola if the situation calls for it, for example if you’re treated to it in a restaurant. Choosing not to have something is a different matter to be simply unable to enjoy something that other people get great pleasure out of.
I guess I have the kind of personality which benefits most from the “I like everything” mindset, because I don’t mind so much that something is worse than something else, as long as it’s still good by my internal judgement. If I’m having supermarket shrimp, I know I could be having lobster, and even the shrimp would be tastier if it was freshly caught, but I don’t really mind since I’m mostly thinking “mmmmmm… shrimp”.

I am unaccustomed to carbonation, and thus find any colas distasteful. I have not been able to discern a quality difference between chicken and the few steaks that I have eaten.
As long as you wouldn’t call a good steak “bad” and go “eww”, I don’t think you’re missing out on too much. Being able to have the thought “hmm. Steak.” is sufficient for my ideal.

I agree that good chicken is just as good as good steak.
