Which Spice Are You?



You are Allspice!

You are the flavour of the Caribbean. You are not, as many think, a mixture of spices; you are your own, very unique, spice. Though you may be found in the company of "jerks," you're actually quite nice and rather good at making foul things seem nice, too.

The Which Spice Are You Test

From Tobias.

  1. I'm glad you're allspice, which is an interesting spice that I very much enjoy on the relatively few occasions I use it, but this is a SILLY quiz. A good 50% of the time my either/or answer was actually "neither of the above", but that was not an option. I came out as salt, which is fine by me - lots of metaphors - but look at their breakdown: "You scored 25% intoxication ..... 50% complexity, and 25% craziness!", of which they say "You may be bland, but life just wouldn't be the same without you". Bland? OK, I know it's 4:45 in the morning, but .....

    Silly!

  2. Lapin, they're all silly. I liked the part in my description about associating with jerks, present company excepted, of course, and making foul things seem nice.

    I was going to ask what the hell you were doing awake at 4:45 am, but I see above that it's only insomnia, which can, however, be a bitch.

  3. Perfect!

    I turned out to be habanero peppers. ;-)

    But yes, Lapin and Mimi, they are all silly.

  4. Yes, this is a silly one... but I found it less frustrating than the Facebook Movie Quiz, which makes you make judgments on movies you've never seen, and makes spurious comparisons with other folks on that basis. Very off, as far as I can tell...

  5. Like your father-in-law, I go have a habit of nodding off around 9:00 p.m., then feeling ill-done-by because I'm wide awake at 3:30 the next morning.

    Early to bed, early to rise,
    Gets the bags from under your eyes.

  6. Jane, that sounds exactly like you.

    Tobias, I have special contempt for those that insist upon opinions about books that I've never read and movies that I've never seen.

    Well, Lapin, are the bags gone?

  7. I'm salt, which I guess makes some sense and is oddly pleasing. "The salt of the earth" and all that.

  8. Salt is good, Bob. Salt of the earth is even better. It wasn't so much my spice as the commentary that I liked.

  9. I'm fennel, like Kate Morningstar.

  10. Fennel is good, too, Jan. Is there a bad spice? None that I can think of.

  11. I liked being fennel. It is uncommon, and people are always aware of its presence, even if they're not sure what they're aware of. I like in Indian restaurants the mix of the seeds and little candied things they have for after the meal. And I like the spice.

    These days, I like cardamom too. It was good to have an opportunity to be silly. And Mimi, I have apologized profusely at my place, since you left your note.

  12. I am salt. I thought that was very boring so I took the test again... still salt.

    At least it's Biblical.

  13. Lindy, why is salt boring? The Bible says salt gives flavor to everything. What would we do without salt?

  14. I took the quiz but then I got tired of being asked to register and give up my email addres and after 3 pages of registration questions I gave up.

  15. IT, now we'll never know. What a loss! I didn't have to do all that to get a result. Is it because you're not registered with Blogger.
