The Ick: Restaurant Habits That Make You Undateable

This week on Flavorphiles, Tanner and Jerry are making The Ick List — the restaurant habits that instantly make someone less attractive.A dinner date is not just about dinner. It is a test of manners, taste, generosity, patience, curiosity, and whether you can treat a server like a human being. From filming every dish to saying “I know the owner,” we’re breaking down the food behaviors that ruin the vibe.Then relationship expert and sexologist Shan Boodram joins the show to talk about dating performance, spicy food, and why people pretend to like things they don’t. After that, Tanner lays out the green flags: how to order well, share well, handle problems gracefully, and be the kind of person people actually want to sit across from.Finally, we head to the internet for food-centered dating hot takes involving shellfish allergies, chicken fingers at fancy restaurants, stolen fries, and whether an expensive restaurant is too much for a first date.Amuse Booze: Adios MFer — a drink that is absolutely unhinged to order at the start of a date, but maybe exactly right once the night has earned it.Thank you for listening!
