It’s Valentine’s Day and everyone is rushing to get their partner seated in a luxury restaurant to surprise them and treat to their favorite food. Be it a long-distance relationship or the one where you get to meet every other day, Valentine’s Day is the best time to make your partner feel loved with a bunch of roses, chocolates, and a romantic dinner. When we talk about dinner, there are several foods that are prepared and while some of them are actually aphrodisiacs, others can put off the mood. Foods like onion, garlic, oysters, spicy curries, and even fried food are some that must be avoided on this day as they can ruin your whole day. Read below to know more about such foods.

Soup
When out for a romantic meal, soup is usually a pretty safe option. When the soup is made from fresh ingredients, it can be the safest bet. However, the commercial soups are loaded with hidden sodium, which is not good for the heart. Also, a high sodium meal means you will feel bloated which can make you uncomfortable when wearing your favorite dress.

Alcohol
There is no harm in opening that special bottle with your date. However, the point we are making is that do not go overboard as you don’t want to stink or end up sloppy.

Blue Cheese
It’s a must-avoid food on Valentine’s Day and the reason behind it is that it smells like someone’s armpit which has not been washed for days.

Spicy curries
Spicy curries are made with a lot of ingredients and some of them can actually put a smell in your mouth. And we are sure you do not want to talk to your date with a smelly mouth.

Fried food
Valentine’s Day might seem like the best day to go for a cheat meal, but here is the reason why you must avoid it on this day. Fried food is difficult to digest and can make your gut unhappy. It can give you the feeling of heartburn and acidity, which can make your date go hayway.

Oysters
The Roman Empire believed that oysters were a great aphrodisiac, but what you don’t know is that eating oysters can actually cause foodborne illnesses if it is eaten improperly cooked or raw.

Onion & Garlic
No one in the history of the world has ever been turned on by onion breath, but that's not what we're talking about here - not entirely, at least. While you might be able to fix bad breath with help from your toothbrush and some mints, onions and garlic also have the potential to cause something not as easy to fix some major gastrointestinal distress. That's even less attractive than bad breath, and it's entirely possible you haven't realized these popular ingredients are the problem.

Carbonated beverages
Even if you've been with your other half forever, you still want to make a good impression during your special romantic meal. Do you know what doesn't make a good impression? Gas. Regardless of which end it's coming out of gas is never a turn-on, so skip the carbonated drinks.
