Why don't you order chicken wings on a date? Not something I would do
anyway (not that fond of wings, but will assist in ordering & eating if
enough other people at the table want them).
Would it be a bad thing to order a cheeseburger on a date? Bad to keep the
onions on the burger?
Is there some Tex-Mex specialty dish that ought to be avoided at all costs?
If so, what?
Some sushi that would be bad as first-date food? Is it impolite to bum
wasabi if you're allergic to fish and hence not eating sushi, but eating at
the sushi place to be polite, and also because they have some good non-sushi
things that you *can* eat in most sushi places, including wasabi?
I know you have to be careful when you're out with someone who cannot stand
the thought of anyone actually eating a pickle when you yourself like them.
(At an agreed-upon moment, the other person looks the other way while you
chow down every pickle on the table. You don't exactly get to savor them,
but at least they're not in the way of the other person's enjoyment after
that.)

who's never done online dating and not terribly likely to any time in the
future, because hey, she found the love of her life in the co-ed college
dorm and spent an awful lot of time in his room initially to get away from a
somewhat inconsiderate roommate (as opposed to the extremely inconsiderate
roommate)
