Consider this your personal “flavor profile.” What flavors best represent you?
Lexine DeLuca: My culture identity is mixed and this creates a diverse “flavor” profile for me! My mother is Chinese/Filipino and my father is Italian. The diversity that I’ve experienced throughout my life has shaped the way I think of flavors. As I think through this question, I believe I’m a diverse range of flavors. At this moment in time, I’m full of surprises. Like one of my favorite guilty pleasures, General Tso’s Chicken (drools) – I’m sweet, savory and oh so spicy!

Arielle Scarcella: The parade! People tend to overlook it but it’s how it all started — as a march and protest for our rights.

What does #CelebrateAllFlavors mean to you?
Ramzy Masri: Growing up, I didn’t see many representations of myself in popular media. There just weren’t many queer people who were visible… especially brown ones. To me, #CelebrateAllFlavors is about finding joy in the things that make us different. Those things are often what makes us unique and special and are absolutely worth celebrating. There’s something new and interesting to learn from every person and every flavor… and the more loud and proud you are, the more other people will feel comfortable with their own quirks.

Pride is a beautiful time of year, but how do you celebrate all flavors year round?
Andrew Kuttler: Just by being kind to people, from all walks of life, asking about their story and where they came from. Taking a second to listen to someone else’s story – that’s Pride. Not only being proud of who you are but making someone feel proud of who they are, too.
