      I guess for the fast food orders there could be some insights with enough volume and associated data (time, frequency, location.)

      If someone suddenly started ordering loads or boycotted that one that decided homophobia was the way to go or something you could sense political leaning.

      You could get a sense of allergies or vegetarianism.

      You may figure out payday

      Could maybe get a feel for menstrual cycles

      Could figure out someone’s route home

      Family size maybe.

      Probably more idk.

        If you’re not in data science, you should get into data science. These are good insights.

    In the 70s, 80s, and 90s, companies would call homes to ask what was in their fridge, cupboard, etc.

    Could I really know what you believe in and what flavour of upright (or immoral, but I believe people were made “good” so why expect differently?) you are by having a passing knowledge of your exes? I guess if I asked your exes everything about you, maybe, but that assumes they’re unbiased sources of information and, c’mon, lol. Or what your political (a derivation of ethics) views are? Or what your triggers and coping mechanisms are? I mean, we could get along no matter what kind of music you listen to/fast food you order, but other stuff like being a violent neo Nazi would evidently bring some friction to our friendship!

    I doubt you’re as vacuous as you think (certainly more than a collection of products you consume, right?), don’t sell yourself short. 😉
