What socioeconomic class do your food choices resemble?

Mine resemble food choices of the upper middle class according to this.
I have never been in any socioeconomic class higher than lower middle class. But I had college educated (but very poor) parents who encouraged adventurous eating, so that potentially skewed my results.

    According to the quiz my food preferences do not correlate with any particular "class".

    I'll eat almost anything. The only dish I said "no" to was meatloaf.

    Your food choices resemble those of the middle class (89.29%).

    It said my food choices were upper class. I was surprised because I said no to things like caviar and oysters. I said no to a lot of foods, all the meat based ones actually.

    Mine said upper middle class.

    i guess because i dont like chicken nuggets or frozen pizza? i also said no to oysters and steak tartar (tried it once and though i like my steak rare i do like it cooked at least a LITTLE lolol) i dont know LOL

    My food choices could not be tied to any one social class.# Mostly in lower middle class & middle class.# some in upper middle class & upper class. # very little in lower class. I will eat any low carb foods but I don't eat raw meat or raw fish. I don't eat junk foods because of carbs and sugar but I won't say no to a nice dessert or a healthy carb once in awhile.

    Off to take the quiz now but is there a section for the lazy class? That'd be me. ;)

    96.% middle class
    There's not nearly enough chocolate in that test. And I've never had lobster mac n cheese but KNOW I'd love it.

    I don't think it is accurate for vegetarians because practically every item was meat based - mine said mostly lower class maybe because I said no to all the meat, raw fish and oysters and such, and yes to Mac & cheese and frozen pizza? My grocery purchases this week included organic gluten free oatmeal, chia seeds, toasted pumpkin seeds and smoked tofu and tempeh (all organic) and a cartload of fruit and veggies. If that's how "lower class" eats then I'm good with it. :smiley:

    Samesies.

    Yeah, it definitely seemed like it wouldn't work for vegetarians. I got upper middle.

    Your food choices could not be tied to any one social class. I eat most of it.

    75% lower-middle class. I don't like anything fancy.

    Definitely agreeing with some of the complaints here. I got lower middle class, but I'm sure part of that is because I do love me some frozen pizza and fish sticks. But, also because a lot of the foods I assume were "high class" were foods I don't like, but not because they are too "fancy" for me. For example, sashimi...texturally I can't with big chunks of raw fish. But, I'll happily eat sushi. And, after taking meat science classes, I'm only eating that steak tartare if I can be very confident in where it came from, if not I'm getting the medium rare steak.

    Upper middle - I agree that the quiz doesn’t reflect the reasoning behind choices. For example foie gras is a hard no for me, but for ethical reasons, not culinary ones. My tastes probably are pretty much upper middle though. I clearly remember the first time I ever laid eyes on white bread, Bologna, and frozen peas, at a friend’s house at a sleepover. My mom’s idea of a snack for a child was half an avocado filled with feta cheese and drizzled with balsamic vinegar. Going to college and grocery shopping for the first time and learning how much all that costs was an eye opener.

    There's a socioeconomic class for food choices?
