Top 5 Sex Scenes Involving Food

Brian Fairbanks — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:43:00 GMT

We're too busy fantasizing about sex with food to pull ourselves away from these five hot sex scenes in order to have lunch...

5. Tom Jones - a scene that actually makes gluttony hot

4. Last Tango in Paris - butta, baby, you're butta... barely not a rape scene, but no list about sex and food, especially if it involves the movies, is complete without this, one of the most notorious moments in film.

Backdoor Behavior With Butter!

3. Hot Shots! - in some ways, this is superior to our #1 choice, which is parodied here

2. Flashdance - hot: Jennifer Beals sitting absolutely still and doing absolutely nothing; mind-blowingly hot: Jennifer Beals sucking on a lobster tail while playing footsie with her date

1. 9 1/2 Weeks

See you next week for another Top 5... suggestions are always welcome...

Sex and the James Beard Awards

Emily Farris — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 18:16:00 GMT

Sex and the City is taking over the world, at least the culinary world. The film's star Kim Cattrall co-hosted the James Beard Awards with Chef Bobby Flay in New York City last night, appropriate, considering at one point in the movie, Cattrall looked a lot like this:

(Yes, we finally saw the Sex and the City movie.)

Anyway, Cattrall hosting anything wouldn't be complete without some sexual innuendo.

Cattrall opened the ceremony talking about her own love of cooking, then asked co-host and celebrity chef Bobby Flay what has more sex appeal than food. A breath later, she offered her own answer.

"Maybe what's sexier is the chefs who are always cooking up something new and exciting," she cooed.

Cattrall then quickly challenged Flay to a "throwdown" in the kitchen, to which Flay said: "Don't worry. I'll be gentle."

Oh, you two! Now make me a god-damned hamburger. Hold the mayo.

Kate Beckinsale Would Much Rather F*ck Than Cook

Emily Farris — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 17:37:00 GMT

Actress Kate Beckinsale says she can't be bothered to cook, but that she totally makes up for it in the bedroom.

Except we have just one little problem with her argument.

She tells British magazine Glamour, "I'm the worst wife in the cooking department. I always thought you can't be good at food and sex, but you can always order the food in."

We think a gentleman or two around Brooklyn might disagree that one absolutely can be good at both, but we totally support the fact that not everyone likes to cook.

And like Beckinsale said, "I'd rather he didn't order in the sex."

Scanner Survey: Sexy Food

Emily Farris — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 18:21:00 GMT

What's the sexiest meal anyone has ever made for you? We ask because, as you may or may not know, we're writing a cookbook about casseroles, and in it, we have a dish called "Seduction." A take on a family mac & corn recipe, we call it "Seduction" because just about everyone we make it for wants to sleep with us or marry us — and not because the food itself is sexy. In fact, with six different cheeses, it probably makes for the most unsexy next morning (or evening, depending on your level of lactose tolerance). But to us, this is still the sexiest dish we make because we put so much love and care into making it.

But we're interested in what constitutes sexy food. A Top Chef challenge to create sexy dishes a few seasons ago ended in disastrous tackiness, and beyond that, we're kind-of lost.

So, Scanner readers, what's the sexiest meal anyone has ever made for you? Or that you've ever made for someone else? And penis pasta doesn't count.

"Seduction" recipe after the jump.

Ingredients
1 large, white onion
2 cloves garlic (you might want to skip if you’re actually trying to seduce someone)
1 lb. Cavatelli, par boiled
½ lb. sharp cheddar, cubed or shredded
½ lb. white cheddar, cubed or shredded
½ lb. Gruyere, cubed or shredded
½ lb. fresh mozzarella, cubed
½ cup grated Parmesan
½ cup wildcard cheese of your choice
1 bag (10 oz) Cascadian Farm frozen organic sweet corn
2 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
¼ cup olive oil
½ cup milk (low fat or skim is fine, not that it really matters at this point)
salt, pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 350º
In a large pot, boil Cavatelli (add a little olive oil and salt to the water) but be sure to get it out just under al dente, then run cold water over the noodles or they’ll continue to cook, set them aside in the strainer

In the same large pot, sauté the garlic and onion in 2-3 tblsps of olive oil, when the onions begin to brown, reduce the heat to low
Add milk, stir
Add both cheddars and Gruyere while continuing to stir
When the cheeses begin to melt, add the Cavatelli while continuing to stir
As the pasta becomes coated, add half of the parmesan (1/4 cup), stir
Add corn while continuing to stir (it can and should go in frozen)
Salt and pepper to taste
Add mozzarella, stir

Transfer to a 2 ¾ qt buttered or greased baking dish

Bake uncovered at 350º for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly
Remove from oven and cover with sliced tomatoes and the rest of the Parmesan cheese
Bake for about 15 more minutes

Let sit 10 minutes before eating (if you can)

Serves 5-6
