What is your first choice when it comes to ice creams?
There are several different personality tests out there. From zodiacs to birthstones, your favorite FRIENDS character, to your Hogwarts house. But do you know your favorite ice cream flavor can also reveal a lot about you? Surprised? Well, ever since ice cream was invented in 1660, according to IDFA, it has become popular and each of us has a go-to flavor. In fact, it is one of the three foods astronauts miss the most when they go on space missions. The other two being Pizza and soda, per Ben & Jerry's.
Here is a breakdown of some of the most popular ice cream flavors and what it means to have those as your favorite or preferred pick-me-up.
The phrase “vanilla” is often used to indicate that something or someone is boring or too simple. But that’s really not the case. Just like the spice vanilla - sometimes called green gold, according to Reuters - people who like vanilla are spicy! Although a simple flavor, vanilla — one of the most popular flavors around the world — really represents minimalism at its best. Those who like the earthy goodness of vanilla appreciate good quality and not something over the top. Peace triumphs anxiety in the vanilla bean lovers.
One of the most beloved and common flavors, if you like cacao in your scoops, you are likely to be a flirtatious and seductive person. Outgoing and lively, you tend to be very charming, but also dramatic, and gullible on the flipside of boisterousness. Those who like chocolate ice cream have strong opinions about things but are open to exploring new ideas and experiences different from their own. They are cozy and warm people, just like how their homes are.
Just as caramel has deep, different notes in it, from an earthy flavor from the browned sugar, there’s also the rich cream to balance it out, and people who like the flavor have a deep, multi-faceted soul. They take the offbeat path, and probably enjoy yoga or meditation, and look for things that challenge them, whether it is work or personal life. These people are actually shy and caring, and others often tend to misjudge them and are intimidated by them until they have gotten to know them up close and personal.
If you’re someone who always likes to mix it up, there’s a good chance that you like mint chocolate chip. People who like this ice cream combination exude ambition, confidence, frugalness, and argumentativeness. They push the envelope with their boldness, which may not go down well with some. Given how this is not really a flavor that bodes too well with a lot of people, it shows how you like to stand out of the crowd. Like them or hate them, you can’t ignore them!
Full of flavor, and packing a punch, this ice cream flavor will keep throwing surprises your way. Be prepared for the unexpected with those who pick this flavor. They’ve likely picked a lot of experience on the journey of life, some good, some bad, but that’s what makes them tough. They are also wise, and the longer time you spend with them, the more you realize what they have to offer. Rocky Road lovers could come across as aggressive but are very engaging and are good listeners. Their varied experiences also tend to be followed by success in life.
Some horticulturists believe that bananas were the first fruit on earth and have been seen to have originated in South East Asia. Simple and accessible, people who love banana-flavored ice creams are as rich as the fruit itself. They will always be ready to listen to you and lend an ear and give you advice when you need it. Easy to read, they are open and upfront and never hide anything. What you see is what you get.
So, what is your favorite ice cream?
