Have you ever wondered why the fancy dinner dishes on their dates appear to go untouched? One thing I've always noticed while watching The Bachelor was the fact that they never ate anything on dates (with the exception of trying bugs or odd foods on the street). This, of course, led me to the depths of the internet where I learned that there is an entire slew of rules to be followed while you’re on the show. Some of them surprised me, and some, not so much. If you’re considering applying to be on "The Bachelor" or are just nosey like me, you will enjoy learning about the rules that the contestants have to abide by during their journey for love.
