This note studies necessary and sufficient conditions for consumer demand data to be generated by a symmetric utility function. We find that a dataset of prices and consumption decisions can be rationalized by a symmetric utility function if and only if the symmetrized dataset satisfies the generalized axiom of revealed preference.
