This from Nancy R. Fenn :
"Dr. Alan Hirsch of the smell and taste institute says after testing more than 18 thousand people, he believes food can determine a couple's compatibility… Or at least help you pick out a possible mate. Hirsch claims, "We were able to determine who you would be most romantically compatible with and 95% of the time it's correct." His book, What's Your Food Sign?, covers cocktails, breakfast foods, ice cream, fruits & veggies - even snacks. So if you love potato chips the research shows you are a competitive, high achiever. You'll go well with other chip lovers but you can mix it up with pretzel people too.Popcorn lovers are self-confident take-charge types, but are also modest, and won't show-off. You'll pop for other popcorn people and may get hot for tortilla chip lovers.Or here's another taste test for love. A severe sweet tooth means you live for the moment. People who prefer sour flavors are loyal and will stay together. Spicy food fanatics are thrill seekers who try to end a relationship quickly. And salt lovers are introverts who want to avoid a confrontation."
I don't know about you other salt-lovers, but my Myers-Briggs results are a definite "E" -- for the uninitiated, that's "extroverted" and NHLBI, I believe, would not consider me non-confrontational. On the other hand, my wife and I have been married nearly 39 years. Go figure.
