  People express their personalities in their clothes, their cars, and their homes.Because we might choose certain foods t0“tell”people something about us, our diets can also be an expression of our personalities.For example.some people earn mainly gourmet(供美食家享用的)foods, such as caviar(鱼子酱)and lobster(龙虾), and they eat only in expensive restaurants(never in cafeterias or snack bars).They know about the“better things in life.”

  Human beings can eat many different kinds of foods, but some people choose not to eat meat.Vegetarians often have more in common than just their diet.Their personalities might be similar too.For example, vegetarians in the United States and Canada may be creative people, and they might not enjoy competitive sports or jobs.They worry about the health of the world, and they are probably strongly opposed(反对的)to war.

  Some people eat mostly fast food.One study shows that many fast-food eaters have a lot in common with one another, but they are very different from vegetarians.They are competitive and good a t business.They are also usually in a hurry.Many fast-food eaters might not agree with this description of their personalities, but it is fl common picture of them.

  Some people also believe that people of the same astrological sign(星座)have similar food personalities.

  Aries(born under the sign of Aries, between March 21 and April 20)usually like spicy(辛辣的)foods, with a lot of onions and pepper.People with the sign of Taurus(April 21 to May 22)prefer healthful fruits and vegetables, but they often eat too much.Sagittarius(November 22 to December 22)like ethnic foods from many different countries.Aquarius(J anuary 21 to February l 9)can eat as much meat and fish fls they want, but sugar and cholesterol are sometimes problems for them.
