A new study has found that one in every three ladies have gone on a date with a guy just to get a free meal.

The research was conducted by Brian Collisson, Jennifer Howell, and Trista Harig of Azusa Pacific University and UC Merced, and published in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science on Friday.

The study, titled a “foodie call”, is a process whereby a person sets up a date with someone they are not romantically interested in, but for the purpose of getting a free meal.

The name was derived from the term “booty call” – a slang for phoning an acquaintance for sex.

The two online studies carried out by the researchers showed that 23 per cent to 33 per cent of women “have engaged in a foodie call”.

During the first study, 820 women — with 40% single, 33% married, and 27% committed in a relationship but not married — were recruited. Out of the participants, 85% said they were heterosexual, and they were the focus for the study.

Their personality traits, beliefs about gender roles, and their “foodie call” history were all measured. They were also asked if they thought a foodie call was socially acceptable.

Nearly a quarter — about 23 per cent — of the participants in the first group said they had engaged in a “foodie call”.

Although some of the women believed “foodie call” was more acceptable, others were of the opinion that it was extremely to moderately unacceptable.

For the second study, a similar set of questions of 357 heterosexual women were analysed and it was discovered that 33% had engaged in a “foodie call”.

The authors, however, stressed that neither of the studies recruited representative samples of women, so the percentage might not be accurate for women in general.

They noted that “foodie calls” could happen in any kind of relationships and could be perpetrated by all genders

Super True...Alot of Foodie~Call ladies in Nigeria lately.

I have no problem giving them a food trip but i find it playing with my intelligence when they invite their friends to join them and they try to order as they like.

in as much as most ladies will dispute dis,dis report is 100% correct with its fact. they are broke and hungry. they can only get the dough after getting the DIIK. they should just thank God that HE gave dem PUNNA,if not,they would have been endangered or extinct

We're all guilty of these....one time in our lives

Some're still indulging on it,some has masters
Some are veterans in the free foodie evengelism.





If you like...deny it!dont even dare denying it.Jesus z watching you
Nothing does us.

Hungry bitches every where

I remember back then as a kid

I had this friend whose mom was a director in UAC so he could virtually walk into any Mr bigs and eat all he wanted so could.his friends so while we were in unilag this guy had alike a different girl every day of the week

Funny thing is he had a face like Edward scissor hands
So back then I just couldn't understand what was going on. Anytime we were home for the weekend in ogidi GRA his house was always filled of different kind of ladies

In Nigeria 2 out of 3 girls date for free food. And if possible may want to make free food dates permanent
