For certain sufficiently generic, low-value-on-variety preferences, learning to cook could be the last thing on your list for what you need to make your life better. (I dislike certain very common foods and food combinations, and I love variety, so while I can eat out I can’t do it that often and be pleased about it.)
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.
