An anti-capitalist asks for leftovers to be put in a container in 'First Dates': "There is overproduction of food"

First Dates is one of the most talked about programs on current television in Spain. Every day, dozens of single men and women come to the space presented by Carlos Sobera hoping to find a person to fall in love with or, at least, have a pleasant evening.

Despite the desperate attempts of many to find love, only a few manage to connect with their date and leave the most famous restaurant on the small screen excited about a new relationship.

One of the last singles who dared to live the Mediaset España experience was Bruno, a non-binary trans boy who assured that he had found himself and that he had found a way to live in peace with his identity and his image. The young man explained in the program that his aesthetic helps him detect allied people easily and made it clear that he is "anarchist" and completely "anti-capitalist." Furthermore, Bruno expressed that his ideal partner had to have similar ideas to his.

Zaida, his date, is a crazy young woman who also has a "non-normative" aesthetic. She defined herself as "a different girl." Although they share a certain style and ideology, she didn't really like Bruno's appearance, although she decided to give him a chance. During dinner, the young people enjoyed a pleasant conversation, but they soon realized that they had different tastes at different points, such as partying in pubs or in open places.

They did agree on the need to connect ideologically and that it is difficult for both of them to think about a closed relationship, an important point when getting to know a person.

Although they got along well, there didn't seem to be much chemistry between the singles, who fell into some topics in the conversation, such as talking about the weather and whether you prefer summer and heat or winter and cold.

At one point, almost at the end of the date, the young man realized that they would not be able to finish all the food they had ordered and, far from paying and going home, he asked the waitresses to give him the leftovers in a container Although many social media users have described this action as "normal," many others have called it "unnecessary."

Before leaving the restaurant, the waitresses handed the containers to Bruno, who proudly defended before the television cameras that he took what he had not eaten because we live in a society with "overproduction of food and even so there is a lot of it." people who are left hungry.
