Do you eat boiled eggs for breakfast? Well, you're more likely to get divorced.
Are you a "sunny side up" kind of egg-eater? You've got a high sex drive.
According to research out of London, the we eat our eggs can offer insights into our personalities.
Using sophisticated maths and a process known as data mining, scientists have uncovered a statistical relationship between a person's character, lifestyle and social class and whether they like their eggs boiled, fried, scrambled or as an omelette.
In the new study, the research team found that poached egg eaters are outgoing, listen to upbeat music and are happier, boiled egg consumers are disorganised, fried egg fans have a high sex drive, scrambled egg aficionados are guarded and omelette eaters are self-disciplined.
The study was commissioned by the British Egg Industry Council. For the record, I eat an Egg Beater omelette every morning - it's low carb and delicious!
More from the study:
- Poached egg-eaters are likely to have two children and no more than one sibling and are more likely to be women.
- Boiled egg-eaters had a tendency to be careless and impulsive.
- Fried egg-eaters are most likely to be younger and male and most frequently found among the skilled working classes.
- Scrambled egg-eaters are more likely than other types to be in managerial or senior-level jobs and also to own their own home, and omelette eaters are likely to have a tidy home.
