" Joanna over at Smitten recently raised an interesting topic: What to order on a first date. That first meal is all-important. It can make or break an entire relationship! How do you navigate the menu? While I am an adventurous eater, I like to play it safe on a first dining encounter. I avoid the obvious food traps: I bypass anything too garlic-y, anything with beans in it (ha!), anything too messy and anything in the curry family. But I&amp;#x27;m not the type of girl who orders a salad and picks at it. I joke that I eat like an old man--I&amp;#x27;ll order a steak and have a glass of scotch--but I&amp;#x27;ve been told not having food hang-ups is infinitely more attractive than starving through dinner. (I&amp;#x27;m hungry all of the time, so there&amp;#x27;s no point in pretending I&amp;#x27;m a dainty eater.) How about you? What do you eat (or not eat) on a first date? Do you have a specific meal you gravitate to on dates? Do you stick to a diet on a date, or do you forget it for the night? Don&amp;#x27;t forget! Sign up for Glamour&amp;#x27;s free (and easy!)
