12 Foods Never to Eat on a Date ...

Salad is a food you should never eat on a date. Men like women with hearty appetites. Ordering salad sends the wrong message, and that message is: I'm a finicky eater who's always on a diet.

I love pasta. It's really, really amazing. But spaghetti is messy. You want to be a lady, not a tomato sauce slob. Skipping spaghetti means no red sauce on your pretty white blouse.

Think of garlic like your worst enemy. It’s tasty, but it’s a no-no. Never, ever, ever order anything very garlicky on a date.

Any entrée that needs a wet nap should always be avoided. No guy wants to look at a girl with sauce all over her face and fingers and rib meat in her teeth. You want to be sexy, not a hot mess.

When you flash your signature smile, you want your date to see your pearly whites, not a chunk of spinach.

Lobster is delish, I know. But, it can get very sloppy. Your date wants to kiss you at the end of the night. He doesn’t want you to be covered in butter and a bib.

A hamburger and an enormous bun can turn into a bit of an eating disaster. Save yourself the embarrassment and order something that’s easier to eat.

Soup can be hard to eat politely. Slurping sounds aren’t a turn on.

Ice cream cones are tasty, I know. But, on any date, avoid foods that need to be licked. For real, no man needs that kind of pressure and no woman wants that kind of attention.

Fried cheese is pretty amazing. It’s so good it’s almost a delicacy. But, it can get really, really messy the minute you eat it. A woman with a mouthful of cheese isn’t too appealing.

Anything with pesto will 99% get caught in your teeth. Could you imagine being out with someone who has food stuck in their teeth? I certainly cant!

I’m a person who constantly makes changes to whatever I’m eating. I’m a particular eater, and I know it drives some people crazy. When you make tons of substitutions on a date, your man might think you’re high maintenance or a tad bit annoying. Order something simple, instead of having to make an item change.

This food list is to help you avoid a dating disaster. Yes, there are tons of delicious foods that you want to try, but save them for dinner with your girlfriends. Do you have any extra foods to add to the list?
