The reason he behaves like a {{Jerkass}} and uses [[AlienLunch bizarre and disgusting ingredients]] is to savor the victory of people falling over themselves to eat his food anyway. He views cooking dishes that make what his opponent's cooking taste horrible despite itself as part of the game. At one point, Jan even follows a defeated contender in a contest all the way into the street to continue taunting him.
