German term or phrase: Abwechslung macht das Leben süss
Quelqu'un voit-il un équivalent en français ?

La personne que je relis a mis "C'est la diversité qui embellit la vie" et je ne suis pas du tout convaincue...

Merci d'avance !

Plaisir du choix, plaisir de choix


Explanation:
C'est vrai qu'on aurait tendance à mettre du sel ou du piment dans la vie, mais comme on parle de café, c'est difficile.

Je cherchais quelque chose dans le genre 'Plus il y a de choix, mieux c'est' sans être convaincue non plus.

Éventuellement dans un autre contexte : plus il y a de choix, mieux on se porte.
