Do You Eat These? Proof You're a Food Trendster ...
By Neecey • Jun 23, 2020 MD

Food has is trends like everything else. Even to the point where sub cultures develop. You might even say that following a certain diet (Paleo, gluten-free, vegan etc) makes you part of a food sub-culture. But unlike sub-cultures which develop and grow over time, trends can be a passing thing. Take a look in your pantry and fridge and if you can see a few of these products lingering, you can definitely count yourself a food trendster.

    I've been cooking quinoa for a while. I eat it cold and add lots of vegetables- even left over roast vegetables for a lovely salad. This is my lunch most days. Yum!

    Same thing with cottage cheese-looks like baby spit up. I can force the food down, but I don't like it.

    I literally only like artisanal bread. I can't stand the textures of most of these trends...and most of the flavor profiles are sour/tart, which I cannot stomach!
  • Megan

    2015-06-28T23:48:20.588Z

    I would NEVER crave any of these foods. No food run here!
