Food as a tool of love


I read this article when it was published (in conjunction with Valentine's Day, naturally):


When it comes to certain foods' ability to "put you in the mood," I'm a bit of a skeptic. I've never downed oysters or tiger penis or chocolate and felt my body respond in that way. I do believe that enjoying a good leisurely meal, with good company, under the glow of a fine wine can have that effect. But then it's more about the mind than it is about the stomach.

What about you? Ever had some culinary treat wake you up in this way? Convince me.
