Sex is awesome. So is food.
1. What you eat can actually affect how you taste.
2. There’s a food-related sex fetish called sploshing.
It's all about using food to create sexy sensations, BDSM educator Mistress Shae Flanigan previously told BuzzFeed Life. It's basically using someone's naked body as a canvas and dressing it with sticky, slippery, aromatic, or just generally delicious stuff. Sometimes it can lead to sex, or it can just be a part of foreplay or BDSM play.
3. And another one is called wet-and-messy fetish, or WAM.
4. You can use some food-grade oils as lube.
5. A word of caution: You can risk a lot of irritation when putting food near your genitals.
Every body is different, but typically the skin around your genitals is going to be a little more sensitive than the rest of you. If you don't have sensitive skin and you pretty much never get infections, you might be fine with some Nutella on your outer labia or on the base of your penis. Or your body might be like NOPE NO OUCH IT BURNS GET IT OFF. So have fun, but be warned that food items might cause some irritation down there, says Dweck. If this happens, wash it off immediately and see a doctor if the reaction persists.
6. For starters, spicy foods should go NOWHERE NEAR your privates.
7. And putting foods INSIDE any orifice other than your mouth is generally frowned upon.
8. Sugar in and around your genitals might not cause a yeast infection, but who wants to find out?
9. If you want to get naked and play with food on other body parts — like your partner's belly, chest, back, hips, etc. — go crazy.
10. Eating a big meal before sex can actually screw with your performance and orgasm.
11. And as for alcohol, less is more as far as your sex life is concerned.
12. All those foods that are known as aphrodisiacs? That's maybe bullshit.
