Are You a Foodie? A Test

You might be a foodie if ...

you have a cheese budget ...
you order your spouse a sausage for your anniversary, and it's just what she wanted ... you have 3 different books on the science of cooking (this also makes you a geek) ...

You Might Be a Foodie If ... [toomadforpants.com]

How about, "You might a foodie if....you drive to the grocery store at midnight to buy ground lamb to make Greek Wontons for a midnight snack."

Or, "You might be a foodie if ... you made a foam out the dirt surrounding the bolete mushrooms you harvested in Central Park."

You might be a foodie if....when you had a sleep over in high school your midnight snack was fettucine alfredo and bruscetta. I think some of them just wanted doritos.

You might be a foodie if....the only room in your house that is clean is the kitchen. Those other rooms really have no purpose!

I'm with ThatGirl, my kitchen is spotless and it gets cleaned every night before I turn in. Let me add this to the list, you dream about food and recipes and it is the only dreams you remember in the morning.

You watch Food Network (or Tony B on the Travel Channel) while reading Ruhlman's latest, and this month's Saveur is right there on the table for when you finish this chapter.

You hate Semi-Homemade with Sandra Lee -- but watch it anyway just to see what stupid recipes she comes up with next.

I fall into the category of food geek. I have more than three books that deal entirely with the science of cooking. In fact, I had seven of the 18 items on the list. Not only that, I'm with That Girl, too.

Now to add my own version: You might be a foodie if there is murder in your heart when someone messes up your clean kitchen, even if that someone is your only child, the fruit of your loins, and you threaten him with dismemberment using your ten inch chef's knife. Then he laughs at you and tells you it won't hurt because your knife is so sharp. :-S

You'd rather be in the kitchen stirring, sauteeing and braising as opposed to being with your 85 house guests who are slugging cocktails, meeting new friends and seeking out the mistletoe you've hung throughout the house.

Is that a "foodie" or just sad???

Acme Instant: Not sad at all. The kitchen is often the best room in the house at a party.

I agree with Acme Instant and ThatGirl.

To add my own: You might be a foodie...if someone actually wants to help but you don't want them to help because you know that the helper doesn't know how to make your own recipe perfect. Hmm...foodie or just o.c.d.?
