This or That Food Questions (WYR Food Edition)

If you are looking for some fun “This or That” questions about food, you are definitely at the right place! We have prepared a list of interesting this or that food questions. This or That questions are very similar to Would You Rather? questions. Each question gives you two challenging options, and you have to choose one and explain the reason why you chose that one.

This or That Questions for Food

Why would you play this or that? There are many reasons to play this or that game. For example, if you are a teacher looking for icebreaker activities, there’s nothing better than “this or that.” It’s a short, low-prep or no-prep icebreaker and time filler. You can either ask these questions at the beginning of the class to get your students talking or at the end of the class to fill in the last couple of minutes.

Also, “This or That” questions can be used during a game night or in some sort of group meeting. For example, you might want to break the awkward silence at a gathering with a new friend group or club members. You don’t always have to ask personal questions to get to know better about someone. By listening to their answers to “this or that’ questions, you will find out something new about each other in a very unexpected way!
