Jamie Oliver's recipe for love

Is there anything that Jamie Oliver won’t turn his hand to? The TV chef, restaurateur, food campaigner and homewares mogul has now turned matchmaker, hooking up (ooh la la) with UK dating site Match.com to create a space “where food lovers meet”. Jamieoliver.com now offers users a searchable database of single foodies (sindies?) as well as “Dinner Date Tips,” “Foods to make you fall in love,” and recipe suggestions for “making the first meal for your partner.”

Announcing the launch Jamie said: “I’ve always found food to be a really powerful way of bringing people together and I thought it would be great if we could get people who loved food, to love each other!

“My site and match.com both have great communities on them and hopefully, by partnering up, we’ll be able to bring single food lovers together and make some love matches – or maybe even a marriage – happen.”

Hmmm, while I’m all for finding love over an aromatic dish of linguine with black truffles or shared gooey chocolate dessert, I’m not sure I need the Naked Chef egging me on...
