Methodology:

Grubhub’s talented team of data analysts looked at usage of the Express Reorder, Preorder and Pickup features of the Grubhub platform from July 2016 to July 2017. The superlative-style rankings of cities were determined by comparing each city’s orders to those of Grubhub diners across the nation. The most popular dish per feature was determined by orders placed using that feature in a particular city versus a standard (not using the feature) order placed in the same city. Male versus female order habits were determined by analyzing the order data of males in comparison to females on the Grubhub platform.

   A: 62 percent of respondents prefer a heartier dish, whereas 38 percent prefer a lighter meal.

   Q: Would not offering to pay be a deal-breaker?

5. Unless you can use chopsticks, don’t bother with sushi.
   Q: Your date uses a fork for sushi. What do you think?
   A: 56 percent of respondents thought, ‘it’s cringe-worthy!’ and the remaining 44 percent thought ‘it’s adorable’ to forgo the chopsticks.

“Partnering with Tinder allowed us to tap into the food-related dating preferences and practices of today’s singles,” said Barbara Martin Coppola, chief marketing officer of Grubhub. “We’re thrilled to be part of the new dating experience and it is heartwarming to see that Grubhub can play a role in the love story of couples nationwide, as people get to know a new partner over their favorite local cuisine, from the comfort of home.”

The poll surveyed more than 2,000 people across the U.S. via the Tinder app. Participants were surveyed on their food-related dating preferences. By choosing answers through Tinder’s signature ‘swipe left’ and ‘swipe right,’ these participants allowed Grubhub and Tinder to draw five key conclusions about the etiquette of food during the first three dates.

“Most first dates involve food, so partnering with Grubhub to learn more about how eating preferences affect compatibility was a perfect fit for us,” said Rosette Pambakian, vice president, global communications and brand of Tinder. “The findings are interesting and highlight the important role food plays in dating.”
