Default Is That Cat Chow or Chicken Fried Rice? Take Slate's ingredients quiz.

How well do you know your foods????

Food quiz...or whatever it is...



You guessed 9 of 11 processed foods correctly.
On average, Slate readers guessed 5.4 correctly.

8 of 11, some of the ones I missed I didn't even know what the finished product was.

I love Squirt. Ruby Red Squirt is the bomb.
