We've been through dating apps, we've been through blind dates but have you considered the grocery store? Singles in Spain are lining up at Mercadona stores, a popular chain of supermarkets, to pick up a few items in hopes of cooking up some organic romance.
Singles are using their grocery baskets as a form of communicating possible interest in the dating scene. Similar to swingers culture, the pineapple has been pegged as the appropriate signal to other singles that you’re there not just for groceries, but also to mingle.
Now you may be asking how one actually does something about a potential love interest or how do you open up the conversation, and the answer is simple. Those ready to make their approach are advised to playfully bump carts with the shopper they’ve set their eyes on.
Pineapples are only the first sign of singlehood.Those looking for a longterm relationship should pick up a bag of lentils, because they last forever in your pantry, while those looking for a hook-up can pick up lettuce for a good, short-term time.
