Our Food Choices Also Depend On Our Date of Birth. Here’s Why.

Not a lot of us believe in sun signs and their traits and their effect on people, but those who do swear even their breathing by it. “She is so stubborn, must be a taurus!”, “He is so ambitious, must be a Scorpio!” or “He gets worked up so easily, has to be a Leo!” are things that you’ll often hear from a sun sign junkie. Not always baseless or superficial, but the zodiac can at times be eerily accurate. Even when it comes to food. No kidding! What we eat and how we pick out our flavours also has to do with the date of our birth. Find out here which food suits your sun sign and whether you have a Libran set of taste buds or Aquarian. 

 

The first zodiac sign, Aries lead the pack. Being a fire sign, Aries are completely in love with anything that’s spicy or anything that’s red. Red curries, chilies or tomatoes, Aries are drawn towards the aroma of spices and herbs. Anything that is quick to whip up and super delicious matches perfectly with their personality, which is possibly why you will find Aries often stuffing themselves with a horde of junk food items. On the upside, they love to experiment with new foods.

You can’t say gluten and Virgo, in the same breath. The flag-bearers of health food, Virgos are in love with green leafy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, and cabbage.

Health foods, low calorie dishes are their thing and they prefer clean flavours instead of mixing things up. Minimum tampering with their food please!

Just like their lives, Librans seek balance in their food. Patrons of perfection, finesses and fineness, they like foods which are beyond the obvious and redefine luxury. Social butterflies by nature Librans love to combine food with an elegant dining experience. They also have a special place for desserts and don’t mind beginning their meal with something sweet instead of appetizers. A pro at dining etiquette you will rarely find a Libran making chewing noises on the dining table. Also, they are ardent admirers of creativity and innovation when it comes to food. Their favourite food formula is “Surprise me!”

They also have a special love affair with meats of all kinds and proteins and their love for liquor is almost sinful .

The true vagabonds, Sagittarius are constantly traveling, visiting new lands and trying out innovative cuisines. As a result their palette is well versed with an array of ingredients and recipes.

They have a special place in their hearts for fried stuff, and therefore Moroccan and Indian cuisine work best for them.

For Capricorns it’s just not the cheese that satiates them but it’s the hunt for it that adds a sense of fulfilment. They are the pioneers of dining etiquette as they take their dining time seriously. Usually health freaks by nature and because they tend to pile on those pounds with relative ease, they keep a hawk eye on what goes in their system. A simple home-cooked meal with the right amount of nutrients and vegetables will put a smile on their face. For them, simplicity and quality do the trick.

 

They Love: Eggs, Cold Soups, Leafy Greens

 

Inquisitive by nature, Aquarians would want to know what goes into making exotic dishes, but they may not have the heart to put their taste buds at stake. They usually seek comfort in simple ingredients and dishes like dal chawal. They go for food that is quick, fast and yet not high on calories- like  sandwiches, pasta, noodles, salads and corns. Being a ‘people’s person’, they act as a social magnet in a party and enjoy an elegant evening.

 

They Love: Smoothies, Home-cooked food, Lime

 

A fish without water and a Pisces without sea food on their plate – they will both suffer. The paired fish sign is more often than not tempted by the exotic creations of Thai and Chinese cuisines mainly for their extensive use of sea food.

On the spice front, they are attracted towards the aromatic ingredients.
