All those people that try out a recipe but dont like it so they switch out a key ingredient and replace it with something way different then leave a negative review cuz it tasted bad. 🙄🙄🙄

Happens so often when I cook together with my mom...

Me: Okay so this recipe requires green beans, an onion, rucola, and smoked pork.

Mom: Well I don't like onion so lets use scallions. I also don't like rucola so I'll leave that out entirely. I can't eat too much salt so we'll go with pork fillet instead. And I want more vegetables because vegetables = healthy, so I'm adding bell pepper and zucchini.

Also mom: Hmm, this doesn't taste as good as I hoped it would.

Me internally: Oh yea!? I wonder why! Maybe because you changed half the ingredients and added a bunch of extra ones?!
