Gastro Meets Astro: A Taste of the Zodiac

What’s your food sign?

Aries likes it hot, spicy, and on the table fast.

Libra has a sweet tooth.

Aquarius will show up late for dinner, but Pisces will get there early and be ready to help in the kitchen. Sagittarius will be the last to leave the table but the first to hit the gym afterwards.

Virgo wants to know where everything comes from and how it’s been prepared, while Scorpio seeks the exotic and unfamiliar.

Taurus is the sensualist of the group, taking intense pleasure in the food; Gemini relishes the conversation as much as the meal.

Cancer is all about comfort food and big family dinners, while Capricorn likes traditional foods in a formal setting.

Some people turn to astrology with questions about jobs, romance, or the auspiciousness of timing for a life-changing decision. Some just want to know what to make for dinner.

In the 1980′s, culinary astrology had a moment of mainstream acceptance when Gourmet Magazine ran an ongoing column titled ‘A Taste of Astrology’.  Adherents believe its recommendations can maintain health, predict food preferences, and explain cravings. Today, it’s seeing a revival, with online astro-foodologists advising dietary regimens for every sign and every cuisine.
