The Food Porn Meme

Kazari dobbed me in for The Food Porn Meme, as thought up by Rosanne. I have no idea what rating my blog was before, but have no doubt this will 'adultify' what ever I was.

1. What food do you consider the best “date” food? In other words, what meal or food item do you think is sexiest to eat in the company of someone you would like to look sexy around?

Ice cream in a cone. Or maybe a long phallic icy pole. But I'm leaning more towards the ice cream in a cone.

2. What well-known person would you like to share a meal with—with or without clothing. (saying whether or not clothes are involved is optional).

Well, although I've never tried sushi, so I don't know if I'd even like it, it's always been one of my goals to eat sushi off a naked body... and Jessica Alba would make a great table - and she's brainy too, so we could talk afterwards!

3. What does your perfect breakfast-in-bed look like? (Food AND the details, please. Candles? Music? Flowers? Hot tub? Dancing girls?)

Um... In case you hadn't noticed, I'm not really much of a romantic. A partner who doesn't believe in Valentine's Day, and two young children seems to have leeched out any romantic leanings I once may have had, and I seriously don't know how to answer this. I guess it would have bacon, and either no toast, or not be in bed (crumbs in bed = bad!) but honestly the only thing I can think of is that it would be 2 or 3 years in the future, be made by my kids on Mother's day or some such occasion, and probably be shared by the whole family all sitting on our bed. Actually, all 'food porn' and romantic thoughts aside, three kids and my DP all crowded around sharing a breakfast the kids made for me sounds pretty much perfect to me.

4. What do you consider the best application of whipped cream to be?

Well, the best use for whipped cream is to make ice cream, but once again I feel I'm missing the point, or perhaps just being deliberately obtuse. Whipped cream is cold though, so I'd have to say used for a dip for strawberries, perhaps piped on to the tip of strawberries, so you could lick the cream off the strawberry, for an effect much akin to the answer in question one.

5. Oh-God-No, Biff, the yacht is sinking! You are sent to the galley to retrieve the food. What luxury food items do you snatch first? The champagne? The caviar? Smoked Salmon? Truffles? Chocolate? Or something else?

Um, is the yacht sinking in the harbour? If so, the sun-dried tomatoes and prosciutto. If not, and we are miles from land, I'd grab the big tank of fresh water, and whatever staples I could lay my hands on. Not luxurious I know, but I was a scout, and practical is not really a trait you grow out of.

Now I get to put another five people through this torture... not sure this is the best way to make friends in the blogosphere, but here goes none the less:

1. Katrina, @ What Katrina's Up To At The Moment
2. Stephanie @ Dispensing Happiness, because I know she open tags instead of passing on memes, so I don't have to fear getting tagged back with a new meme.
3. Purple Goddess @ A Goddess in the Kitchen, purely because she's always eating the most interesting foods, at the coolest places, and I'd love to see how she answers. But she doesn't know me, so I don't know how well she'll take being tagged by a stranger.
4. Sara @ i like to cook, another tagging a stranger deal-y, but I don't 'know' that many bloggers yet.
5. Lynn @ Cookie Baker Lynn - see above *blush*

I like your practicality! Your breakfast in bed sounds about how mine would turn out. And the best application of whipped cream? Dessert, of course!

Thanks for the tag, but I don't know if I can do this and maintain my site's PG rating. ;-)
