Battle of the sexes at the kitchen table

woman with appleHe prefers a big juicy steak. She’s happy with her baby spinach salad. Sound like you and your significant other?

An AFP article points to a study that indicates that men and women like different foods, “with men favoring meat and poultry, and women fruits and vegetables.”

I’m by no means a vegetarian, but my husband has me beat in the carnivore category. Here’s my question, though: Does this truly reflect tastes? Or do women tend to be more health-conscious and aware of their intakes of calories, natural vitamins and cancer-fighting produce?

    I think woman are just more in tune with their bodies. I’m a guy, and it used to be I could eat a pound of greasy fast food late at night, and the next morning I’d be paying for it with stomach problems, and I wouldn’t know why. Plus being a guy in this society, eating a juicy steak is manly, eat a salad and your a rabbit.
