Pizza Personality Profile: Beware Of Meat Eaters
Almanac Helps Predict Outcome Of Dinner Dates
Posted: 10:31 am CDT September 12, 2006
Dublin, N.H. -- The Old Farmer's Almanac is on newsstands again now predicting the weather by researching sunspots.
And while it predicts a harsher than normal winter, this year's edition also helps predict the outcome of dinner dates with more down-to-earth research, on pizza toppings.
The almanac's pizza personality profile is based on work by the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago. It has concluded that people who prefer one meat topping, for instance, are irritable, argumentative procrastinators "who frequently conveniently 'forget' work and home obligations."
It said natural leaders chose nontraditional toppings, such as pineapple, while the pizza with one veggie topping typically is ordered by people who make ideal parents. Such people tend to be "empathetic, understanding, well-adjusted (and) easygoing."
Published since 1792, the Old Farmer's Almanac is North America's oldest continuously published periodical. The little yellow magazine still comes with the hole in the corner so it can hang in outhouses.
