Controversial, very controversial.
One of the real pleasures from watching First Dates Ireland is seeing the lust, laughs and love that’s blossoming between two complete strangers.
To the best of our memory, the majority of the singletons on the show have usually come across as kind and decent people, and last night’s show was no different.
Thankfully, superficiality hasn’t been a common trait among the First Dates Ireland participants, but there’s no denying that looks are an important part of dating, especially when it comes to making a first impression.
It’s true that personality is far more important, but let’s be honest, nobody is going to date someone that they’re not attracted to.
Dubliner Nicole was an absolute delight on her date and fans of the show adored one sentence that seemed to perfectly answer a question that’s almost impossible to answer, why are you attracted to someone?
All we’re going to say is that she clearly doesn’t understand the love that you can have for a baked potato, bowl of mash or a bag of chips.
When spuds are life, eh?
That's where you're wrong Nicole, we'd happily rip the clothes off a potato #FirstDatesIRL #FindYourFlavour https://t.co/bxFXIC6wXg pic.twitter.com/zDFfSyoRDQ

Plenty of people absolutely loved Nicole’s uniquely Irish description of love.
Quick question, what do you find more attractive, your partner or a bag of chips?
