Will the Real Me Please Stand Up?

An article in today’s New York Times caught my attention. Tara Parker-Pope writes about how who does your home cooking determines how healthy it is. The article has a handy online quiz to determine your cooking personality: “Giving,” “Methodical,” “Competitive,” “Healthy,” or “Innovative.” I took the quiz, somewhat unsuccessfully. I couldn’t answer its questions straight. I could pick four out of five answers to the following question from the quiz:

Some of my favorite ingredients are:

a) Lots of bread, starches and red meat.
b) Beef and chicken.
c) Fish and vegetables.
d) A trendy ingredient I saw on the Food Network.
e) Vegetables, spices and unusual ingredients.

I’ll let you guess which answer is not me. All I can conclude is that I have multiple personalities, at least in the kitchen.
