First dates can have your heart racing and also make you extremely nervous. First dates will also determine how your relationship progresses from there. What to order on a first date can be a huge dilemma, to maybe avoid smelling like onions and garlic for your first kiss. Here is a list of foods you should avoid on your first date:
Soup
Eating soup can sometimes be a disaster, especially when you are nervous on your first date, you might just end up spilling it all over your date! If you have a choice between soup and salad, always choose a salad.

Spaghetti or Noodles
Spaghetti and noodles can get messy and the sound of slurping your pasta can be annoying and a real put off. If you have to eat pasta then order the penne instead.

Garlic and Onions
This is something you MUST avoid eating on your first date or before you go on your first date. Garlic and Onion can leave an odor that might scare off your date. Keep mouth freshener ready just incase your lunch or dinner date leads to more adventurous things ! (wink)
Burgers
Burgers can be messy and the onions, lettuce, and tomatoes make it even worse! it might keep slipping and make you look like a messy eater. If your date insists then try and order burger without the lettuce and tomatoes.

Fried Chicken, Tandoori Chicken or Chicken Wings
This can be difficult to eat and make your hand and lips all sticky. Not only that, it might make you look like a hungry carnivore when you bite into them. Chicken nuggets are easier to handle.

Spicy Food
You wouldn’t like your date to see your eyes and nose running would you? The sight of one’s face after eating very spicy food is not a pretty one. A runny nose doesn’t make a great picture on a first date. Not only that, it might give you an upset stomach and make you want to run to the loo asap! Just stick to food with spice that you can handle.

Crab and Spare Ribs
You don’t want your date to hear you slurping and licking your fingers. Crab and Spare Ribs cannot be eaten with a spoon or fork, you need your hands and you might need to lick your fingers too. It might just repulse your date. Leave the Crab and Spare Ribs for once you get to know each other better and are too much in love to be bothered about how you eat!

Having said, once your relationship progressives, they might see you eat all of that anyways but on the very first date, you don’t know each other so it’s better to take it easy and know each other first before you show them your true colors!
