Eating gingerbread men can reveal personality traits

Eating gingerbread men can reveal personality traits Everybody has their own way of eating gingerbread men. Some people start with the head, while others save this part of the cookie for last. What these individuals may not realize is how they devour gingerbread men may reveal certain aspects of their personality, KTVI-TV reported.

A scientist in Denmark recently conducted research to find out what people’s gingerbread men eating habits have to say about their personality, the news source stated. Based on the study’s findings, individuals who prefer to snap off the cookie’s head may possess aggressive traits, and also be oblivious as to how their actions impact others.

Those who choose to bite off the head of a gingerbread man may be self-centered, with little interest in people they view as weak.

If people snap off a gingerbread man’s leg first, they may have a desire to be liked, and, as a result, avoid confrontation, the news outlet reported. Meanwhile, individuals who break the cookie in half often share the characteristics of a dreamer.

This is not the first study to link food and personality. Researchers from Cardiff University in the UK once found that people’s characteristics were reflected in their diet. For instance, immaturity was associated with greater hunger.

If people are curious to see what their eating habits have to say about them, they may be able to find out by taking a personality test.
