No, it turns out, we can’t all get along. In fact, we can’t even sit down to dinner together. At least that’s the findings of a recent survey by the polling organization Public Policy Polling. In a report titled “Food Issues Polarizing America”, it found stark – and often funny – divisions between Democrats and Republicans over food choices.

Among the highlights:

Democrats prefer bagels and croissants while Republicans like doughnuts (but who doesn’t like doughnuts, really?).

Democrats prefer KFC to Chick-Fil-A while Republicans prefer the opposite.

Republicans believe (by a slim margin) that Olive Garden really does represent “a quality source of authentic ethnic food” while slightly more Democrats think it does not.
