I am what I call a classic "Foodie," also known as a person who cannot stop eating, loving and worshiping all types of food. There is no one who can understand how much food has consumed my life and how much I have consumed food in my life, except for the TV show "Parks and Recreation's" one and only Ron Swanson. Ron Swanson is one of my personal favorite characters from the comedy show "Parks and Recreation" simply because he gives food the credit it deserves.

It's easy to tell if you are a grade A foodie like Ron Swanson and here's how...

If you eat dessert like a straight animal.

If you order an excessive amount of food at restaurants.

If you think eating healthy is way too hard to do.

If you don't understand how a person can be a vegetarian.

If you have snacks ready to go everywhere and at any time.

If you have never ordered a salad at a restaurant. Ever.

If you're always up for trying new restaurants and constantly going out to eat for every meal.

If five or more of those apply to you then I must congratulate you on being a fellow Ron Swanson foodie. The world needs people like us around to tell everyone else what's worth the calories and what is not. We have the greatest taste buds around and all food should be fearful for their lives.

So thank you Ron Swanson for being the spirit animal for foodies everywhere. You are truly someone we all look up to.
