Entering ingredients for different products

My ingredients are showing up the same for each product. The help thread indicated to have different ingredients for each product create a metafielcd in which I did but its still using the same metafield or ingredient (even though I have different named meta fields with different ingredients listed). Another thread said to create a separate template. I’m confused, what’s the easiest way to add ingredients for each product (you’d think just enter the information in the ingredient section under each product but that doesn’t work for the sense theme)?

Others do not know what you know when you reference something that is the source of an issue ALWAYS provide a link to it for context.

Start more simply and just make a basic dynamic source setup with just some simple text for different products using the exact same metafield.

Then revisit your ingredients situations with a better understanding of the fundamentals

You use one single metafield that exists on each product and in each product the text you put in that same single metafield is what is different.

And not multiple differently named metafields, how would the theme even know to reference multiple arbitrarily named metafields as a data source when you just connect it to a single one.

So you don’t make a metafields.ingredients.sugar and metafields.ingredients.flour etc etc with the expectation a theme will know those exists because you connect one of them.

You just make metafields.ingredients.list and put all the items in that as text, or a page reference or some other metafield type.

Otherwise to actually have multiple keys for separate ingredients is much more advanced and will not work with dynamic sources, requiring theme customizations.
