* A shocking proposal was made in an online forum, suggesting people in unhappy relationships who are looking to have an affair should use the ‘bell pepper code’ to signal their availability.
* The forum post suggests people should place two bell peppers in their basket or trolley to grab the attention of potential lovers.

* The discussion has received a flurry of positive responses which is causing concern for couples, as one user points out they’ve “Never seen so much traffic on a forum topic!”

* The post on the IllicitEncounters.com ‘Flirt Forum’ is just one of many unconventional topics discussed.

In a bizarre new twist on food shopping, a growing number of people looking for extramarital fun are reportedly using bell peppers as a secret code to signal their availability in supermarkets.

The controversial discussion took place on extramarital dating site IllicitEncounters.com’s ‘Flirt Forum’, where one user came up with an outrageous idea to discreetly meet potential lovers in the most unlikely of places. “What if we start a secret code in the most mundane place of all – THE SUPERMARKET,” the poster suggested. “It’s perfect! No one would ever suspect that your weekly food shop could lead to something a lot more… sizzling.”

The plan, according to this member, is simple: if you’re looking for a little more excitement than what’s on your shopping list, you just place two bell peppers in your basket or trolley – but with a crucial twist: the stems must be facing downward. 

The idea quickly caught the attention of users on the forum, with one person declaring they had “Never seen so much traffic on a forum topic!”

One particularly practical member suggested that perhaps an additional step was needed: “Maybe we need to choose a specific part in the supermarket to wander off to when you’ve picked up your two peppers because otherwise it’d be too hard. Frozen aisles?”

The forum post gained a shockingly positive response from a flurry of members, with some declaring they’ll be testing the method, “This could make my food shop WAY more interesting. Upside down peppers it is! Definitely going to try this out.” Another user agreed, saying “I’d 100% do this! Would be so funny to see people eyeing up what everyone’s got in their trollies to check if they’re looking for an affair”.

Some people even posted their own suggestions on which vegetables to use. One user teased, “Surely you just need to seductively walk around with an aubergine,” whilst another said “Surely a big cucumber standing upright would be more appropriate?”

Commenting on the discussion which took place on the extramarital dating site, spokesperson for IllicitEncounters.com Jessica Leoni, said “While we normally encourage discretion in these matters, we never thought we’d see the day where people would be checking out each other’s vegetables in the supermarket – and not in the way you’d expect! If this catches on, I suppose we can only hope everyone’s keeping their cool in the frozen food aisle.”
