This is actually a play on the words and is meant as a joke. To ask for a "date" means to go out with someone special to you. Incidentally, A "date" is also a fruit of the "date palm tree" which is common in the Middle East and is often processed as a dried fruit. :Ask her out (ask her for a date), and she will hand you a dried fruit (and she will hand you a date)
