Infor­ma­tion On Our Aphro­disiac Ingre­di­ents (Cour­tesy of GourmetSleuth.com):

Truf­fle Salt: The Greeks and the Romans con­sid­ered the rare Truf­fle to be an aphro­disiac. The musky scent is said to stim­u­late and sen­si­tize the skin to touch.

Car­rots: Another good rea­son to eat carrots–believed to be a stim­u­lant to the male. The phal­lus shaped car­rot has been asso­ci­ated with stim­u­la­tion since ancient times and was used by early Mid­dle East­ern roy­alty to aid seduction.

Pine Nuts: Zinc is a key min­eral nec­es­sary to main­tain male potency and pine nuts are rich in zinc. Pine nuts have been used to stim­u­late the libido as far back as Medieval times.

Aspara­gus: Given it’s phal­lic shape, aspara­gus is fre­quently enjoyed as an aphro­disiac food. Feed your lover boiled or steamed spears for a sen­su­ous expe­ri­ence. The Veg­e­tar­ian Soci­ety sug­gests “eat­ing aspara­gus for three days for the most pow­er­ful affect”.

Almonds: A sym­bol of fer­til­ity through­out the ages. The aroma is thought to induce pas­sion in a female.

Choco­late: The Aztecs referred to choco­late “nour­ish­ment of the Gods”. Choco­late con­tains chem­i­cals thought to effect neu­ro­trans­mit­ters in the brain and a related sub­stance to caf­feine called theo­bromine. Choco­late con­tains more antiox­i­dant (can­cer pre­vent­ing enzymes) than does red wine. The secret for pas­sion is to com­bine the two.

Wine: Self-explanatory
