Then do NOT watch any commercials for the Devour line of frozen meals. Their tag line is “Food You Want to Fork” - just squick me right out.

I’m glad I’m not alone in hating this. I don’t even find traditional sexy food, like chocolate or whipped cream, sexy. No food is ever sexy. Plus I’m haunted by a story I heard from a woman who claimed she and her man had a sexy food party… With funyuns. Eww. ---

I’m kind of picturing something where a dude “impales” a few Funyuns of progressively increasing diameter pre-turgidity, then sees how many be can break with a little arousal. Anyway, anybody wanna couple halves of a Funyun? ---
