My go-to is always ice cream flavors. Simple enough for people to quickly make decisions, but also highly subjective.
Most other comments so far are misleading. You shouldn’t do “favorite” or “best” in forced ranking. It needs to be something that’s on a continuum and is subjective. Typically, you say “rank features in order of importance,” not “most important feature,” or “rank from most delicious to least delicious” rather than “favorite ice cream flavor.”
“Favorite” is a single data point, not a continuum. And it’s not subjective, since others don’t get an opinion on what someone else’s favorite is.
