Is this just about food, or drinks too?

Both — questions cover cooking disasters, weird cravings, restaurant moments, coffee habits, and a fair amount of "would you eat that?" energy.

Good for a first date?

Yes — food is one of the safest topics to bond over and these questions reveal personality without getting too personal.

Are there drinking-game references?

No — alcohol is mentioned occasionally but the category is clean and works for any age.

Have you ever made bread completely from scratch?

Why people ask this

This question works because the yes-or-no split always surprises the room — someone answers in a way nobody expected, and the conversation starts from there. Food questions land because everyone has a worst-meal-ever story, a weird craving they will defend, and a restaurant moment they cannot let go of. What makes this format durable is that a no can be just as interesting as a yes. 'No, but I once…' or 'No, and here is why not' opens a conversation the question never directly asked for. The best sessions are ones where the follow-up runs longer than the question itself.
