Did you know there’s been research done on how food preferences reflect personality traits? Even the condiments you prefer on your burger tell a story. Ok, so it’s pop psychology rather than rigorous science, but it’s fun just the same.
While I want mayo, A1 and onions on my burger, Perry wants tartar sauce and pickles. Ben is a mayo, ketchup, onions and lettuce guy, and Katie wants hers like Ben’s plus tomato.
So what do those choices say about our personalities?
And what do YOUR burger condiment choices say about you?
- Ketchup — Not flashy, appreciates simplicity
- Mustard — Bold, ambitious
- Mayo — No drama, values reliability
- A1 — Creative, witty
- Onions — Authentic, direct
- Pickles — Sarcastic, independent
- Lettuce — Sensitive, avoids conflict
- Tarter sauce — Slightly rebellious
- Tomatoes — Patient, warm
