Okay, so you already look at your stars for intel on everything from your ideal day, workout to the colour of your attire. But, have you ever thought that your cuisine preferences and the complementing grocery shopping can also vary as per your zodiac sign? Yes, it is true!

 

You are what you eat, as the saying goes. And, when it comes to food as well, each zodiac sign is unique. We all have distinct personalities. So whether you're a grab-and-go kind of a person or a foodie at heart, it may have more to do with the stars you were born in than the one you grew up in.

 

And what if we told you that you should also plan your cuisine according to your horoscope?? Here, we have curated a list of your favourite food/ cuisine this year according to your zodiac sign.

 

1. Aries – Indian Cuisine

Spice-enhanced fresh meals appeal to you instinctively. As a result, you tend to disregard packaged foods and go for cooked options. This year, we can see that you'll be more drawn towards Indian cuisine. And, we are not talking about the regular Indian dishes, but full-on butter chicken, shahi paneer, and dal makhani.
