Aphrodisiac Foods

1. Tomatoes
When they were first brought from South America to Europe, tomatoes were thought to be the forbidden fruits of Eden. They were celebrated as a sexual stimulant and nicknamed 'love apples.' Who'd have thought Margarita Pizza could be nature's viagra?

2. Ginseng
The Chinese refer to Ginseng as 'elixir of life' and have used it for more than 5000 years. Russian experiments claim it increases sexual energy and has a general healing influence on the body.

3. Garlic
Both the Romans and the Greeks sang the praises of garlic as an aphrodisiac
.They didn't even use mouthwash back then either.

4. Caviar
OK so I don't get it. As legend goes, Aphrodite was born from foam of the sea and therefore fish eggs will get you in the mood. But any increased energy from the 30% protein will surely be diluted by the price. Plus, it's fish eggs!

5. Oysters
Rich in phosphorous and praised by none other than Casanova. They are easily digestible but taste disgusting - still, if it gets you in the mood.

6. Eel
Said to be favoured as an aphrodisiac due to it's phallic appearance but surely the size would lead to inadequacy issues. Apparently has an excitant effect on the bladder and is high in potassium.

7. Peaches
Apparently symbolic of female genitalia, brothels were once known as 'Peach Houses'.

8. Honey
Sticky, messy, highly impractical but highly nutritious and full of minerals and amino acids to keep you up all night.

9.Asparagus
Excites the urinary passage and has all the necessary vitamins and minerals to maintain high energy levels but, rather unfortunately, can cause apathy and sexual uninterest making it a shit aphrodisiac!
