Love is never comfortable on an empty stomach. To alleviate the double pangs of hunger and hungering for that someone special, DoorDash Inc (NYSE:DASH) and Shake Shack Inc (NYSE:SHAK) are partnering on a dating site designed for the romantically inclined aficionados of the Shake Shack Buffalo Chicken Sandwich.
What Happened: The new “Eat Cute” dating site is designed to help chicken sandwich lovers find their soul mates in the digital realm. According to the companies, participants can upload a selfie to LetsEatCute.com and identify how spicy they like their chicken sandwich.
“Instantaneously begin tapping on the flame icon to find your perfect match, then the rest is history — just like that last fry at the bottom of the bag,” the companies said in their press announcement.
