I think the original form of the saying was “Too many cooks spoil the broth”
Which can mean too many in charge of a job creates too many opinions and more arguing than work, so the finished project doesn’t come out well.

The time-honoured expression is “Too many cooks spoil the BROTH.” Guaranteed. It means that too many people working on one job just get in each other’s way. However, not only does the expression get Union bosses in a huff, it also flies in the face of an equally time-honoured expression “Many hands make light work.” Go figure!

It should be “Too many cooks spoil the broth” and it means that when too many people are working on the same thing mistakes get made.

Think about it. Too many cooks equals too much food, which leaves too much cleanup, which requires too much soap.
*EDIT*
If its ‘too many cooks spoil the soup” then the meaning is that too many different opinions on what tastes good, can result in it tasting bad. Apply concept to everyday life.
