TONY Says Reading Midtown Lunch Makes You a Food Snob

This is actually kind of cool… Question #29 in Time Out New York’s quiz to determine how much of a food snob you are:

You get your lunch from cheap street carts…

a) as much as you can. Last year you were front row at the Vendys.
b) never. Those things are filthy!
c) only on a Friday when you’re down to your last $5.
d) if Midtown Lunch says you should.

You get maximum food snob points (3) for choosing A or D. Nice.  Take the full quiz here

  • I got 80. Call me a food snob but I think that “foodies” should be able to order ANYTHING from any (non-DOH’d) ethnic food menu, AND be willing and able to try to source the ingredients and cook it at home for themselves. Anything less and you are a B&T poseur.

  • Your Score: 48

    You’re a Discerning Diner. You know what you like and it often includes gussied-up grub. But you’re just as happy scarfing a Papaya Dog any day of the week.

  • 83

    Branzino is non-discretionary… and I wish I had the counter space for an immersion circulator.

  • 84 – uh oh

  • I would think answer B gets you the most snob points.

  • 66? Im not really a food snob, and I do find it incredible that a) people have never heard of tripe and b) people don’t like tripe. what’s wrong with these people?

  • Ugh, I got a 93…

  • 61…how does eating from a cart make you a food snob? If anything, it shows I’ll eat anything.

  • 78 – food elitist

    What’s so bad about wanting to eat food that tastes good?

  • i love it! although answer d) should be worth 4 pts

  • 43–You’re a Discerning Diner. You know what you like and it often includes gussied-up grub. But you’re just as happy scarfing a Papaya Dog any day of the week.

    Proud to be a common man!

  • That’s why the Vendy’s suck imo – for all the people who don’t really eat from carts to excitedly spend $80 to eat from a bunch of carts once a year, and then tell others what carts are best. FU.

  • Foodie Elitist — damn!

  • Elitist for dinner – Slumdog for lunch

  • Sigh…. 87… time to cry into my home made gin negroni.

  • Inane,
    I scored below you and even I know “gin negroni” is obviously redundant ;-P

    -Though that is one of my favorite drinks :-)

  • keeping it real with my 45.

  • No no… you misunderstand… its home made gin.

  • Oh Damn!! I’m coming over Inane!

  • I try to keep it real with my .45 too Blondie. Oh… you didn’t mean the pistol. Sorry.
