Yup, just thought I'd provide an example. I think I'll do it more often if that's alright with you.

I'm fine with it. Go right ahead.

Fun with a pear..

I had a pear for an afternoon snack. I cut it in slices. The outside was a nice shade of darker green. There were a few dots and swirls of black here and there, but I think the pear looked more interesting this way than if it had been a perfect green. The inside was an off white.

I found several interesting contrasts. The outside of the pear was very smooth and a bit shiny but on the inside I could feel some subtle graining. Another one was that I felt a firmness biting into a piece but soon I could also feel the sweet juices sweep across my tongue. And it was a nice sweetness. Not overpowering but it lingered for a few minutes after I was done.

Besides the chocolate truffle and fruit, is there any other food that come to everyone's minds that can be savored like that?

Oysters, Octopus, both slimy little buggers

Meat balls, lol.

Um, bananas.

Actually, even strawberries, put one in a glass of champagne, then run it down the nape of your chest, (top part of your chest), then suck it and then start eating it.

I sound dirty don't I but no... your talking sensual feelings, tapping into them, hense my reply..

Running now.

A fresh peach. It has to be a Palisade Peach - they absolute best. My first one of the season is an orgasmic experience. I drink in the scent, feel the texture, run my hands all over it as I wash the fuzz off. Then the first bite. Not a big bite, just teeth breaking the skin, toungue catching the first tantilizing taste of the juice. The scent increases, I close my eyes and finally really bite into it. It is indescribable, the taste, scent, texture, the mouth feel. Amazing and wonderful. So jiucy it runs down my arms and I lick it up, not to waste a drop.

I was gonna say something about cheese pizza but never mind now.

OK is it unglamorous of me that i almost snorted my beverage through my nose?

I love the scent of peach...peach bellinis, peach cobbler, oh do I love it!

Cheese pizza...still rolling on that one!!!

[Texinator]

I did have a point about the pizza though. Maybe not rub the melted cheese across your chest or lick the grease from your hands and arms..

But I like things with contrasting textures. So with the pizza there was the somewhat dry crust and the gooey toppings. And because it had several cheeses on it, it was fun to try identify the individual flavors but also the appreciate the whole mix.

Maybe it's not 'sexy sensual' but still a good exercise to become more aware of what your senses tell you.

Oh I agree, I love the textures of foods...

This comes from eating consciously. How often do we eat without really being aware?

[Texinator]

Maybe conscious eating would also double as a good dieting tool? I think people would eat more slowly and also feel more satisfied.

Of course it would also depend on whether you're eating peaches and strawberries or cheese pizzas, but nevertheless..
