These foods should be avoided during a date, real love killers according to a study

It is well known that it is better to be strategic before order at the restaurant, especially when it’s a first date, or one of the first. Between not having very fresh breath afterwards, getting stained, not being able to eat elegantly or having something stuck between your teeth… the list of adventures is long.

In order to advise the next people who will meet up on a date at a restaurant, or simply out of curiosity, Ifop carried out a survey for the sex toy brand LELO on this subject. A sample of 2004 people, representative of the French population aged 18 or over according to the quota method, was questioned about foods seen as love killers. The list proposed to participants included classics, but also some quite improbable foods.
