About this quiz
This food trivia quiz climbs from easy warm-up questions to real tests for experts. Expect questions on world cuisines, ingredients, cooking science, drinks without alcohol, candy and food history.
Play it alone to see how high you get, or use it as a group game. Each level has several questions, a wrong answer sends you back to your last camp, and two jokers help when you are stuck. Questions come in a different order every time.
What the questions cover
The early levels are about everyday foods and where dishes come from. Higher levels cover cooking science, the history of well-known products, regional specialties and how famous dishes were invented.
Where the origin of a dish is disputed, the question is worded so only one answer is defensible.
How to play
A good game for a dinner table: take turns choosing a level and see who knows the kitchen best.
Frequently asked questions
Does the quiz include alcoholic drinks?
No. The drinks questions are about coffee, tea, soft drinks and other non-alcoholic drinks.
Are there questions about cooking techniques?
Yes. Some questions explain why food behaves the way it does, such as browning and fermentation.

How does the quiz work?
You answer questions across ten levels. Every correct answer takes you one level higher, and the questions get harder as you climb.
What are the camps for?
Camp 1 (Level 4) and Camp 2 (Level 7) are your safety nets. If you answer wrong after reaching a camp, you fall back to that camp instead of losing everything.

Does it cost anything?
No. You do not need an account or a sign-up.
