I'm so into pasta that if I'm at a restaurant and I can't decide between two pasta entrees, I will order one as an appetizer and one as a main coarse. No, I will not ask the waiter if they have an appetizer size. I think that's annoying (and I don't want either of the pastas to feel inadequate). This habit of mine leaves me very sated, but hardly eager for a roll in the hay afterwards. I'm really not the best person to ask about sexy foods; however, my friends have some much better notions:

"I think it is probably an old wive's tale, but raw fish, especially oysters, really get me in the mood. Mussels, too. This does not translate to sushi. If you're having sushi and just eating sashimi, then cool, but chances are you're having pieces of sushi with rice, as well as tempura, etc. The rice has a huge amount of sugar in it, as does the tempura, which is also deep fried. After you eat that stuff you just want to crash."

"There is one thing I love to eat before sex that puts me in the mood like nothing else. If you have to ask what that is, I feel sorry for your girlfriend."
- Terrence, 25, bartender/guitarist [Ed note: Thanks, Terrence. We just lost our appetites.]

"A big, fat porterhouse steak. I makes me feel like a man. I use a very stern voice when I ask my butcher for a steak. I'm sure it's all in my head, but red meat makes me want to eff."

"I live on a student's budget, so there's a lot of pasta going on. I don't have a particular food that turns me on. I really like it if a girl and I cook together. Those tend to be the meals that end with me getting some action. It's fun and satisfying and cooperative; it makes you feel close."
- Michael, 21, student

"My mom's Indian food is my favorite thing to eat on the planet, and because my wife is awesome, and completely unintimidated by her mother-in-law, she had my mom teach her how to make my favorite dishes. When she makes me one of these, as a special treat, I feel really loved and warm towards her. It puts me in the mood in a major way."
- Arjun, 30, insurance

"Nothing. I like to do it right when I get home from work. That's my favorite time. It's the best way to say goodbye to my stressful day and hello to my girl. We can eat after."
- Sean, 26, banker

Not a single dessert on the list! Shocking! What foods put you in the mood?
