Solidly middle-class here because I turn up my nose at defrosted pizza but also not a fan of caviar or (cruel) foie gras. It does seem to predict class on the basis of 1) willingness to try stuff with weird foreign names and 2) appetite for unnecessary "luxury" ingredients that don't add flavor.

A lot of this is not only American but specifically Southern American, e.g. grits with lobster tail, fried oysters.

Oh well-this test doesn't work for vegetarians. 🤷‍♀️

It does not.

It was too American so I binned it off..

Nice to see my alma mater spending their research dollars wisely. I was shocked, shocked to find that I came out solidly middle class. I clearly have to up my game. “Garçon! More edible gold on my tuna fish salad on white bread, and be quick about it!”

Your food choices could not be tied to any one social class. or, er, back to the drawing board....?

Yeah, this bis what the results look like for a vegetarian like me. Also, a lot of it looks like stuff that middle class people believe upper class people eat.

It's so US that I'm not going to score well! Mac & cheese is 🤢 everything in a bun is repellent, I don't eat bivalves, and as for grits bleh

It's a very stupid, very American bit of nonsense. Doesn't take food intolerances or preferences into account. I'm apparently very lower class, but half the cheap, shit food any class of Americans eat I wouldn't (and didn't) touch with a bargepole.

Defrosted pizza? Not cooked, no? Just defrosted and popped on a plate?

they had me at potato chips though

Yeah this is pretty pointless as a predictor I think. I'd love to have lobster grits("high class")! I'd also love to have crawfish grits ("low class"). Same with their "fancy" mac and cheese-- it's just mac and cheese, anything is good in it, regardless of class distinctions.

was it the sashimi? it was the sashimi, wasn’t it? 😅 admittedly, i put truffle oil in boxed mac n cheese because i am a classy motherfucker. also, i would fuck with that edible gold whatever. i’ve never met a fancy dessert i didn’t like. but a salient question here: who is picking up the check?

Most posh food is appropriated peasant food with extra steps and expensive new ingredients.
