    Help on never ending trivia question

    We have a local morning radio show here that has a "five questions quiz" each morning and for what seems like eternity people have gotten four of the five correct. There is one question that everyone fails to get each day. I thought I'd poll people here for some possible answers ...

    "In a recent poll of singles, 41% responded that this is something that should be avoided on a first date. What is it?"

    Some common responses have been:

    1. Discuss marriage
    2. Discuss having children
    3. Discussing prior relationships

    etc., etc. Any ideas? I tried Google and just got a lot of online matchmaking sites

    I would go with #3, I would be more than put off if my date spent the entire time telling me how great/bad things were with his ex or comparing me to his ex.

    If #3 isn't the answer then probably money.

    I haven't heard sex as an answer yet but it may have been mentioned. This particular quiz is perhaps 6-8 weeks long and I don't hear it every day but heard it today and knew they were still stuck on this question.

    Money in some form or another has been mentioned multiple times.

    Well, this is close on the percentage... you can PM me for my address to send the prize

    The answer is eating foods with garlic or onions, etc.

    Similarly, bad breath is viewed as the biggest first date faux pas, considered worse than pimples or greasy hair. A surprising 40 percent of Americans view bad breath as the single most embarrassing first date blunder, with twenty-percent claiming the problem alone would be a "deal breaker," eliminating the opportunity for a second date.
    If they question you on this, the answer came from http://www.prnewswire.com/mnr/Listerine/11089/
