          Supermarket dating, where singletons can check each other out via the
contents of their trolleys, flirt while weighing vegetables and even walk down
the aisles together, is coming to Paris. Lafayette Gourmet, the food hall at the
Galeries Lafayettes department store in Paris, is about to unleash the concept
on the worldwide capital of romance. Single shoppers will be identified on
Thursday evenings by special purple shopping baskets decorated with a cartoon of
a kissing couple, and offered a glass of champagne and a free photograph if they
succeed in hooking up with a potential mate. “We have noticed that we have an
evening clientele buying single portions of fresh food, so we decided the demand
is there,”Lafayette Gourmet Sylvain Gaudu told reporters. Paris, home to around
900,000 singles, many of whom are increasing working hours as long as that in
London and New York, has already been introduced to speed dating and online
dating. The “dating market” shopping evenings, an idea imported from the
Netherlands, will be jointly run with Yahoo!, which already has an online dating
service in France. Once shoppers have made eyes at each other through the cereal
packets or brushed past each other at the cheese counter, they will be able to
chat each other up in the queue for a special checkout counter reserved for
singletons.
