In the latest episode of Life in Food, I speak to The Fake-Up author Justin Myers about Food and Dating. For the best part of a decade, Justin was an anonymous blogger who went under the pseudonym of The Guyliner, writing about his experiences of dating. After five years writing for the Gay Times, he now has a weekly column for GQ and has written articles on everything from dick pics and dating green flags to a handy guide to whether you’re giving your partner the ick. In 2017, he outed himself as Justin Myers in order to publish his first novel, The Last Romeo, before going on to write two more novels and being dubbed 'the master of the modern romcom'. Our discussion covers everything from the best and worst foods to eat on a first date to the gentrification of working class foods and the issues with food and class.About Justin Myers: Perhaps best known for his Guardian Blind Date reviews, Justin is a freelance journalist who writes about love, dating and other topics under the name The Guyliner. He is the author of three novels including The Last Romeo, The Magnificent Sons and The Fake-Up, and he was also a script consultant for the BBC adaptation of Adam Kay's non-fiction book This Is Going to Hurt.
