To think that most “foodies” are just using their diet to mask deep insecurity about their personality?

If your personality is just your next meal, maybe you need to look in the mirror and realise you have nothing else to offer.

Huh?

So you think if you like nice food, that’s your whole personality? Why? I know a couple of chefs, definitely foodies - they have personalities.

So many completely goady threads like this recently, with exactly the same formatting as each other.

FWIW, personalities are made up of the things we love. I’d much prefer to be excited for my next meal than be bitching about other peoples insecurities. IMO the people who rant about others having no personality are the bloodthirsty dramatics who have no personality themselves.

What if you haven't decided on your next meal? Does that mean you have no personality? Oh no 😱😱

I seem to have turned into one of those protein wankers you see on instagram. Is that what you mean op?

Have you maybe had a drink? On a school night?

Odd post. It is possible to like more than one thing.

What is it with all these weird threads today?

Endless threads about 'AIBU to think [personality trait] is really just [random unconnected thing]'

And all started by posters with those WeirdMumsnetUsernames.

Hold my (organic) beer…

Bizarre.

I’ve no idea what this means. I’ve never met anyone who bases their personality on their lunch (and I live in wanky London). Maybe you need new friends?

Ooh. And it’s not even Friday night.

Anonym00se · 24/03/2025 21:33

Can you not have an interest in food and other things as well?

Grabs popcorn.

Oh….
