My friends won’t stop talking about this personality quiz and now I know why. It’s called “What vegetable are you?” and you can take it online via GitHub. (I used my phone to take it, but it works just as well on a computer.)

This entire week, my group chats have been filled with people sending screenshots of their quiz results — I learned I’m a carrot. But this is not your average personality quiz. This ode to produce contains a hidden secret and just might be the cutest thing I show you this week.

The quiz was created by GitHub user Sophie006liu and features adorable digital art of anthropomorphized veggie characters fit for a children’s picture book. It starts off with a pretty simple question about what snack you would bring to a hangout, but quickly evolves into an entirely different experience.

Now, I’m going to add a spoiler warning, which might seem silly, but I want to give readers the chance to experience the quiz without knowing the twist.

[Ed note: The rest of this post contains spoilers for the contents of the “What vegetable are you?” quiz.]

If you’ve already taken the quiz, you are now privvy to the many mysteries behind the veggies and we can talk about how this is not just another little personality quiz. It’s a whole dang text adventure game nestled within a quiz.

As you play, your answers will guide you and your veggie friends along different narrative paths. I took it a few times. One time, I went to space and the other try I traveled to a kingdom of cheese. Even little decisions appear to have a significant impact on your path — I was pleasantly impressed!

“What vegetable are you?” reminded me of Frog Fractions, but not as elaborate. Frog Fractions took a similar turn after being disguised as a simple math game. The best part was that my friends and even my partner didn’t mention anything beyond the personality quiz element, so I didn’t know anything about the adventure side of it. And there’s nothing like an unexpected moment of joy in a week.
