Today's Topic:
Spicy or sweet, sex with a... err, cherry on top?
We all need to eat, right? But should we be eating while we're having sex? (no oral sex pun intended!) Drips of honey, phallic shaped carrots, squishy fruits and sticky chocolate - there's something to suit everyone's taste buds. But is foodie sex a turn on or a turn off? Is it a bit like sex on a beach -- it sounds all romantic until a crab bites your ass and the sand creeps into places you really don't want sand creeping when there's some friction going on?

LOL I love the presentation of this topic.
I think some foods can be erotic. Licking honey or chocolate off a body is hot. Putting something around a penis and gently eating it off, hot. Edible underwear for women and men...hot.
I'm a little errr squicked out by food going up into a woman. Probably just me. All I can think of is...what if some is missed?
Great topic!
It seems this is an obligatory component in erotica nowadays and I wish it would just go away. It just so isn't erotic to me to have to suspend my disbelief about food-sticky sheets and, ewww, bodies.
If flavors are absolutely necessary, flavored massage oil or lube I can handle! :)
And I just found this and laughed myself silly, and it's so applicable for today's topic

Ick factor. Hair in the mouth with food is soooo not ok.
It depends on the food, but I love the taste of Spanish olive oil on anything!
I have a scene in "The Crystal Flacon" where my h/h are licking the oil off various body parts and it certainly was fun to write!
BTW, as far as it being obligatory in erotica today, off the top of my head, I recall a scrumptious scene in the movie "Tom Jones" in 1963 from a book written in 1749 that involved food!
Hmmm...I'm thinking that while having a person lick chocolate off of you sounds really sexy, the other part of me is thinking about what a mess it would make - take sticky, gooey chocolate, add some friction and surely you'd need a bath afterward. Back in the day, my boyfriend poured some cold assed champagne on me while we were in the bath. Yeah, it sounds sexy to have someone pour champagne on you...but it was far from pleasant.
I don't think I have any foodie scenes in any of the books I've written either. ROFL!

Hmm.... I'm thinking that while I love strawberries covered in splenda, I don't want all that extra sugar around places that *encourage* the growth icky stuff down there, ya know?
*shudder*
Food & Sex gets a "not hot" rating from me.
It sounds oh so delicious...honey on nipples, whipped cream smothered all over his cock, or remember the food scene in 9-1/2 weeks!!!!
I still can't look at a strawberry without a few images of that movie invading my mind.
Every night I enjoy a dish of blueberries and yogurt...and considering how blueberries stain...well you get the picture. I think honey and perhaps a can of whipped cream is about the extent to where I would venture. The rest I'd probably leave on a plate.
Damn. It's too late to take that chocolate scene out of my third Comet book now. LOL.
I think it depends and, besides, as every writer has to learn early on, you can't please everyone all of the time. I do think it depends on the food, the scene, what you do with it. I'm with Mechele on this, and no food inside a woman. Please god no! It doesn't take me away from the real world for a spell. All it makes me think of is the roaring infection she's likely to get.
I don't mind a little food action - those one feeding the other and "oops, here let me lick that off" scenes can make for good foreplay suspense when done well. Although when it comes to the act itself, I can't help myself from thinking "sticky, oh my all that lactose, eek I need a shower" a good portion of the time. That's not to say all food scenes are bad, oh no, but yeah those ones where someone gets turned into a human cannoli, eh.
