If you’re reading this article, the chances are that you already know your MBTI personality type, your StrengthsFinder result, and your moon and ascendant signs. Now, there’s one more way to know yourself or others better—through snack preferences!
According to a study done by psychiatrist and neurologist Alan Hirsch, there is a link between food preferences and personality because smell and taste are processed in the limbic system—the part of the brain that controls emotions. To find out more about the link between the two, Hirsch studied the snacks preferred by particular personality types.
Scroll down to look for your favorite snack and find out what it says about you!
Potato Chips
Hirsch’s study found that potato chip-poppers are typically ambitious and competitive. They are high achievers who enjoy success. If you love potato chips, you might also feel frustrated when dealing with slight inconveniences. So, it’s best to remember to be patient and keep calm.
Pretzels
The study found that most pretzel snackers are lively and energetic. They love dressing up, which increases their confidence levels. They are also most likely seen having fun in a group. If you love pretzels, you may also tend to overcommit, which can lead to friction in your personal and work relationships. So, always think twice before agreeing to something.
Tortilla Chips
Tortilla chip snackers are perfectionists. The study found that they are humanitarians—always striving to be the best, not only for themselves but also for others. They are also great planners and are often highly self-disciplined. If you prefer tortilla chips, you might have been one of those students who argued with teachers for an A+ instead of just the A.
Meat Snacks
Those who opt for savory, meat-based snacks are more likely to be loyal to friends or their favorite sports teams. If this is you, you may also tend to be over-trusting. This predisposes you to emotional turmoil when someone disappoints or betrays you.
Biscuits
Biscuit snackers were found to be contemplative and thoughtful. According to Hirsch’s findings, biscuit snackers value their alone time and are most creative when given the time and space to think. Their biggest struggle is that all of their projects compete for their time and attention. If you love snacking on biscuits, you might want to plan your break times so that you can give your 100% to your work or studies.
Nutella B-ready is the perfect snack for you as you don’t have to worry about Nutella-covered fingers. You can snack and type at the same time!
You can also bring Nutella’s goodness everywhere you go. You can simply pop a bar while waiting at the grocery, braving rush hour traffic, or waiting for the rain to stop. Nutella B-ready is an essential that you wouldn’t want to be without.
Shaped like a mini baguette, Nutella B-ready is filled with the creamy, hazelnut-y, and chocolatey taste of Nutella and a sprinkling of puffed wheat crispies. Once you try it, it’s easy to see (or taste) how this multi-texture sensory delight has a cult following worldwide, including Europe, Australia, and Singapore.
The good news is that you don’t have to go to Europe or enlist the ‘pasabuy’ services of an international shopper to get your favorite snack. Nutella B-ready is now widely available in supermarkets and grocery stores in the Philippines. With Nutella B-ready, snacking while working or chilling at home just got more interesting!
Wow! Finally! I don’t have to go to Europe to try Nutella B-ready! I’m so ready for this!
This is one of my favorite snacks! I ensure it’s part of my shopping list. Thanks for reminding me about it.
Nutella has always been one of my favorite hazelnut spreads! I’m so happy they already have a wafer form. It’s easier to eat especially if you are on the go!
Nutella B-ready is one of my favorite snacks while watching the movies. I have a sweet tooth so it’s an easy choice for me. My kids love them too!
Such a cool post, I love everything you have mentioned above, but yeah, for Nutella i am a bit biased. Anyways, Thanks for sharing!
I always have potato chips as afternoon snacks while working. It’s interesting to know the connections of the snacks we eat and our personalities
As a potato chip lover myself, I can definitely say I’d love a little competition every once in a while.
This is such a really cool post! This taste so good, it is my sons favorite snack!
Your post is really authentic. Since I am a potato chips lover and I am really competitive and ambitious about my life. Enjoyed the cool post!
Nutella B was one of my favorite snacks while working or watching Netflix, I always crave for sweets
Potato Chips are my jam and it’s safe to say that I’m super competitive, too! Who knew how accurate this would be!
Hihi….I am so biscuit, a boy! I literally live and thrive in thoughts in my mind. Thanks for sharing this great insight into it!
So, I’m a perfectionist? Haha. I’ve seen this last time I went to the grocery store, but we haven’t tried it. Makabili nga sa susunod.
This was really an entertaining and interesting post to read. Who thought you could actually analyze snack types to personality types? It seems we are all united though in our love of nutella!
Competitive and thoughtful! I guess that’s me 🙂 Love the look of these by Nutella….wondering if they are available in the UK?
Wow! That looks like a really yummy snack! I haven’t tried it before, I would love to try this!
This snack taste so good! This is my son’s favorite snacks. I enjoy reading this post!
Ive never thought about that the snacks we have a say about our personalities. Im not surprised about meat snacks
I love all things Nutella, so this little bite size snack looks heavenly, even small enough for me to put in my purse! I can’t wait to order some of these!
I am all about the chocolate! I haven’t seen those Nutella biscuits, and I will have to see where I can find those. We are huge fans of Nutella!
This is spot on! I’m the tortilla chip lover in the family and everyone who knows me says that I’m a perfectionist. My son on the other hand loves potato chips and prefers them to every other snack. He is young but already doing competitive sports because he loves competition. So interesting!
I’m a meat snack!
I am not a big Nutella fan but I know so many are!
I’m a pretzel lady!! Jeez, those pretzels look really huge!!
I don’t know if Nutella-B is available in my country yet, but its everything I can ask for, makes my mouth water..
Such a cool post! I love pretzels and that almost completely describes me 🙂
Potato chips are my favorite snacks and it definitely says true about me.
I am more of a meat snacks type of person. We have Nutella forever, but she is overrated, trust me.
I like to have a variety of snacks. I go by what I’m in the mood for.
These psychological findings are very interesting. Though I don’t snack anything that was mentioned above, I wonder what the psychologist says to someone who snacks for berries, or just has coffee? I guess I belong to the group that hasn’t tried Nutella. The name Nutella translates ‘too sweet’ to me.
This is fun and interesting. I am more into a meat snack person. So, yes I would like to think I am loyal to friends.
I wish I didn’t know about his (*dieting now…tear). LOL
I love pretzels! I always have a bunch of flavors in the pantry for midnight snacks and movie nights. It’s just guilt free snacks for me.
