Find your sandwich soulmate

You can tell a lot about a man or woman by his or her sandwich order. And might replace the Zodiac as your predictor of happiness in a potential relationship.

Hellman’s and Best Foods sponsored a recent study to try to match lunch selections with personality types. The Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation analyzed the sandwich orders of 2,747 adults — offering them eight choices and then cross-examining those decisions with the results of comprehensive personality tests.

More surprising than the actual results might be one of the first facts in the announcement: Americans eat an estimated 40 billion sandwiches a year — approximately 131 sandwiches per person. Forget Match.com, that’s 131 chances to connect in the lunch room or a park bench! (For those who still feel they need love or condiment advice — Hellman’s has launched a companion Web site — Build The Perfect Sandwich.)
