The Sex Life of Food by Bunny Crumpacker

A panorama about how our two strongest urges, food and sex, work with one another in surprising ways. Facts and ideas, flavoured with humour, lead from one observation to another.
Delicious and funny and - yes -sexyA heady mix and a splendid look at the comic mysteries of food. Eat and enjoy. Maurice Sendak Bunny Crumpacker shows how much more complicated (and polymorphous) sensual reality really is. The unexpected connections she makes in these pages between food and sex are exhilarating and illuminating, and guarantee that you'll never keep the two in separate parts of your mind again. John Thorne, Author of Outlaw Cook and Pot on the Fire
