As you are probably aware, April is “Celebrate Diversity Month“, a month-long celebration aimed at “opening dialogues that foster an appreciation of the differences that separate us as well as the similarities that unite us.”

Food Court Lunch has been described as a progressive* blog.  That’s why we’re kicking off Celebrate Diversity Month (not to be associated with “Celebrex Liability Month“ or “Celebrate Asset Diversity Month“) early with our first annual Food Court Lunch Diversity Quiz.  Answer the questions below honestly to get a true picture of your racial and gender tolerance level.  We’ll post the results in a future post (or hand them over to the authorities).
