Are You A Liberal Or A Conservative? We Can Guess By The Food You Eat

It turns out food is more than just sustenance; it's also a window into our values, our lifestyles, and yes, even our politics.

Whether you're starting your day with a kale smoothie or a hearty plate of bacon and eggs, your culinary choices might send some surprising signals about your political leanings.

Breakfast Wars

Liberals: For the left-leaning, breakfast is an experience, not just a meal. Imagine waking up to a frothy Starbucks (lovingly referred to as “Starbies”) filled with some milk alternative, paired with a slice of avocado toast sprinkled with chia seeds. Or maybe some trendy overnight oats soaked in almond milk and topped with a rainbow of fresh fruits. It’s not just breakfast; it’s a political statement.

Conservatives: Alternatively, the right-leaning tend to favor a no-nonsense approach to the most important meal of the day. A few cups of strong black coffee paired with a hearty plate of bacon and eggs will suffice. Or you can just skip it entirely. Who needs breakfast when you have the determination of a thousand pioneers?

Fast Food Frenzy

Liberals: When it comes to fast food, liberals are likely to lean toward chains promising to save the planet. Picture a quick bite at Sweetgreen or maybe a veggie-packed, drag queen-endorsed burrito from Chipotle to bash the fash with every bite.

Conservatives: Conservatives, on the other hand, are enjoying the Lord's chicken at Chick-fil-A, except on Sundays, where you can find them at Burger King or Wendy's. If they're really old school, swap that for Hardee's and White Castle.

Aisles Apart

Liberals: When it comes to groceries, their carts are a smorgasbord of sustainability. Expect to see bottles of kombucha lined up next to a forest’s worth of arugula, gluten-free pasta, and more non-dairy pretending to be dairy. Every item sends a message, and it's something like: “I care deeply about this planet, which is why I buy items that require so much extra processing."

Conservatives: Conservatives also favor organic but that's because Big Food is trying to kill everyone. Their carts are stocked with grass-fed, grass-finished steak, jars of raw honey, and beef tallow (for their cooking and skincare needs). If they could get raw milk, they would, but they don't mind finding their own suppliers since that's just another way to say "f**k you" to the government.

Sip & Split

Liberals: When it comes to alcoholic beverages, they love their craft beers. Also more likely to accept a paper straw but secretly hate it.

Conservatives: They prefer a good old-fashioned whiskey or a bottle of domestic beer. Paper straws can go to hell.

Restaurant Rivalries

Liberals: Dining out for liberals often means seeking out trendy, health-focused spots. Favorites include farm-to-table restaurants, vegan cafes, and places that emphasize locally sourced ingredients. They might enjoy a meal at a chic urban eatery that offers creative fusion cuisine or an all-organic menu.

Conservatives: Conservatives are more likely to eat on an actual farm, but if they are going out, they probably choose a classic steakhouse, a cozy diner, or a family-friendly chain restaurant. BBQ joints and places with hearty, comfort food are also popular choices.

The Sweet Divide

Liberals: Think vegan chocolate mousse, gluten-free cupcakes, or a bowl of acai sorbet. They appreciate desserts that cater to dietary restrictions and emphasize natural ingredients.

Conservatives: For conservatives, a slice of apple pie, a scoop of homemade ice cream, or a piece of chocolate cake is more their style. There’s a love for desserts that evoke a sense of nostalgia and tradition.

Conclusion: Culinary Common Ground

While our food choices may differ, the underlying passion for good food is one of the few things that unites us all. Whether it’s a hot cup of coffee or a custom oat milk Starbies, our preferences might say more about us than we realize.
