He ordered what for dinner?

Hi guys. I feel weird asking this, but would you ever order a salad on a first date? Not a salad with your meal, but a salad as your meal (dinner)? Sure it had some chicken, but it was a salad. I had a first date with a guy and he had a salad. I felt weird ordering the fish dish I was eyeballing, so I ordered a salad as well. I was starving after dinner. This has been bothering me since last week! He called yesterday and I haven't called back. Am I wrong to be turned off?

Here are our thoughts... Why order salad?
1. He's being cheap;
2. He's health conscious;
2. He's gay (doubt it, but we think you were implying it);
3. He likes salad.
If you really liked him, you wouldn't care what he ordered. The fact that you are complaining about being hungry seems to tell me all I need to know about that encounter.
You're not into the guy, move on.
How to avoid this type of situation:
1. Don't order salad on a date;
2. DON'T GO TO DINNER ON A FIRST DATE!
Also, this seems eerily similar to a Seinfeld episode...
ELAINE: I mean, she thought it was kind of strange to just order a salad. . . . You know. . . . For a man.
JERRY: What are you saying? . . . Salad! What was I thinking? Women don't respect salad eaters.
ELAINE: You got that right.
