Libra (September 23 to October 22): Cookies and Kale
It’s no coincidence that your sign is the scales, Libra—you crave balance in every area of your life. And that includes your grocery cart.

However, beware of these “healthy” foods nutritionists won’t touch.
Aquarius (January 20 to February 18): Ramen fixings
Of all the signs, you’re the most eclectic and adventurous, Aquarius. Which means you aren’t going to settle for the same old at the grocery store—instead, you’re going to branch out with international picks, like Ramen noodles for an authentic Asian dinner.
Pisces (February 19 to March 20): Lucky Charms and sushi
Whimsical and artsy: two words to describe both you and your foods of choice, Pisces. Whether it’s a box of Lucky Charms (perfect for your sweet personality, too) or a spicy tuna roll (you are the fish sign!), you’re a firm believer that food is meant to be fun.
