Are you using the latest MineColonies Version?

  I am also running the latest versions of other mods that are part of my problem.

Did you check on the Wiki? or ask on Discord?

• I checked the MineColonies Wiki and made sure my issue is not covered there. Or I was sent from discord to open an issue here.

Current Behavior

A player on our server has given a more detailed example of the constant 'variety' complaints that has flooded the discord recently. I am putting her comment here as it may shed more light on what the issue is stemming from. I am bolding what I think is important:

"These explanations make it sound as if the complaining will stop. My complainers have red gears over their heads, and the set up is better than I usually have. I have run for many minecraft days like this. The gear seems to pop up on people sitting in the restaurant. It's like they sit down, pick up a collection of food, and begin eating. After the third of that same item eaten, they complain they want more variety, even though the problem is that the AI has given them the same item for the third time in a row. If I chase them down to feed them several different things, it doesn't change the complaint. As an example, I have here copies of my restaurant contents and the menu set up.

I'm left believing that this is just one area in which Minecolonies will need to make some changes. I clearly can take no steps to make the colonies stop having red gears and stop complaining about food."

As you can see, there is plenty of variety and all foods are available in the restaurant and there has been ample time for the citizens to eat different things. It seems to me that either, the cook is not giving them different food each time, or they are complaining after eating the same item multiple times in the one sitting.

Expected Behavior

Cook to 'intelligently' feed citizens a variety of items
Citizens to not complain after eating several of the same items one after the other in one sitting.

Reproduction Steps

Have a mid-high level colony (>level3)
Have a massive amount of variety stocked in the restaurant at appropriate levels
Have a colony full of red gears and variety complaints

Can provide server log if you want
