Your Daily FoodScope for July 04, 2024

July 4, 2024



Do you often find yourself wondering what food to cook, how to cook it, and even that dreaded question—how much of it? It’s a daily struggle for all of us, but need not be with our food horoscope. Satisfaction is only a click away!

Aries

You don't usually like working in groups, but you might not have a choice today. Don't be surprised if you actually enjoy the experience, though. It's not the tossing about of ideas that you'll enjoy, but the pepperoni and pesto pizzas the group leader might order for your brainstorming session.

Taurus

You wonder today why it is that eccentric people are always eating eccentric food. These are the same people who think that eating tentacles is a good idea. Go ahead and let them eat all the pork belly or raw fish they want today. You should be perfectly happy with your peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Gemini

Give serious thought to the nature of your health today -- it's easy to neglect it in our fast-paced world. A nutritious diet that's high in protein and carbs and low in fat is essential to good health. A turkey burger on whole-grain roll and an arugula salad is chock full of healthy stuff that doesn't plug up your arteries.

Cancer

The high energy you start the day with should slowly fade into a mellow drowsiness. You may be too relaxed to cook dinner, so keep your options flexible. Ring up Chinese and order take-away walnut prawns and sweet and sour pork. Make sure to use a fork when dining -- those chopsticks are too much work!

Leo

Your outgoing personality makes you a natural at networking, so get out and make some contacts today. Networking functions are always fun, and they usually offer a good buffet. You can both schmooze and have dinner, even though crab puffs, Swedish meatballs and Buffalo wings may not be may not actually be considered dinner.

Virgo

Unforeseen circumstances force you out of your comfort zone today. While you may initially freak out, you soon enjoy the change. Maybe you should run out of mayo a little more often! Using Dijon mustard as a substitute in tuna salad has your taste buds doing a happy dance.

Libra

Peace should reign in the office today as everyone gets along like peas in a pod. This odd occasion could call for a special treat, like a long lunch. Bonding over burgers, ribs and onion rings could have people realizing they have more in common than they think, and harmonious days like this might not seem so rare in the future.

Scorpio

Today, you are craving some delicious fruity flavors, like orange juice. Not only does it make a healthy, refreshing drink on its own, you can use OJ as a marinade, as part of a sauce for stir-fry or in fruit smoothies. You might want to wait until after work to bust out the champagne -- it could be too early for mimosas.

Sagittarius

Do something for Mother Earth today. By planting an apple tree, you can kill two birds with one stone. Think of the delicious pies, cider and turnovers you can make with your bounty of apples from your very own tree. Of course, you may have to wait fifteen years for that, but at least you're on your way.

Capricorn

Frugality is the key to getting through tough economic times. But for tonight, it's okay to treat yourself to a less than extravagant dinner. Get more bang for your buck by hitting a buffet-style Indian restaurant. You can fill up on a lot of roti, tikka, and tandoori chicken and not break your bank.

Aquarius

Your innovative way of thinking is always inspiring to other people. Your brain a beehive of activity, you can solve problems and come up with exciting ideas. Still, you don't want to think about anything once you get home tonight. That's why they invented TV dinners, especially the Salisbury steak with chocolate pudding.

Pisces

Today is an uneven combination of good and bad. The bad occurs when you deal with incompetent coworkers and demanding work tasks. The good comes later at dinner when you dig into mesquite grilled barbecued short ribs. Vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce on the top is the icing on the cake.
