Food--the good, the bad, and the literary.

Here in California, whatever you’re eating better have some heat behind it. Today I pickled jalapeños from the garden but our diet must have serranos, cayenne, habanero, or even the Carolina Reaper to make it worthwhile. OK, just kidding, I only grow the Carolina Reaper to destroy my friends and colleagues. That shit is worse than ingesting gasoline.

I'll throw in some pepper love. I developed a taste for spicy food decades ago and like to push myself. I grew up on Mexican food but it was when I started eating Indian food that I really developed a taste for super-hot food. I don't know where it came from because my family isn't like that at all and I always have to hold back on the peppers when I cook for them.

I was on my 6th or 7th tour of China when I finally figured it out. If I asked for my food to be spicy, somehow it became edible. My hosts said, “Oh, you can’t handle Chinese heat,” and I said, I live on the border to Mexico, home of the hottest peppers on Earth. Next thing you know I’m finally enjoying meals while my counterparts are sweating buckets.

OMG there’s a story there.

Just published: Claire's Cunt Kitchen - a scurrilously rude futuristic satire with a food-and-drink fetish slant, but a heart-warming love-affirming ending. Please have a read!

I don't think of myself as a "foodie," because I'm not sure I'm discriminating enough to regard myself as one, but I do enjoy food. And I think it's sexy.

What's something you've eaten recently that you really liked?

What's something you've eaten recently that you did NOT like?

Have you ever put food in your story or enjoyed food as a theme in another story?

Me: I had a gazpacho with little balls of melon in it not long ago that was fantastic. Refreshing and subtle, the way gazpacho should be. I'm trying to teach myself how to cook Spanish cuisine, with mixed results, and this gazpacho was light years beyond what I tried to make myself.

Not long ago I went to a Pho restaurant, thinking I love Thai cuisine, and it might have been the most inedible thing that anyone has served me at a restaurant. It's rare that I cannot eat something, and I could not eat it. I'm not even sure what some of the stuff in it was, and I didn't ask because I didn't want to know.

Story: I incorporated a full dinner, along with sex, in Hot Night In The Kitchen With Sis. The menu included gougere, lobster bisque, and beef Bourguignon.

The food scene in the movie Tom Jones is a great comic, erotic scene. Babbette's Feast was a very poignant food film.

In my horrible and bizarre story Miss Enid Kirkwoods academy part 2. I purposely made my collection of drunk girls try and cook spag bol. Mainly because i knew it would be messy.

Hey ho.

Some liked it, others did not!

I've included a lot of food references in my stories. I even got some readers to try dilly beans. But, of all the food scenes, what got the most reaction from readers? The diner scene in The Gold Dollar Girls, when Roxanne orders melted cheddar on her apple pie.

The Long, Storied Controversy Over Cheese on Apple Pie

There is nothing anyone can do or say to convince me that this isn't some kind of elaborate hoax.

I, for one madam, do not like to be made a fool of.

My stories often include food, or even recipes, like my latest: The Old House on Drury Lane. https://www.literotica.com/s/the-old-house-on-drury-lane

Living in a house full of foodies, I think it adds to the story to mention what they're eating, hearing, seeing and of course feeling.

I think it’s being able to cook and put a meal together that’s probably sexier than the food itself.

I have to admit I’m of an age where a heavy Indian meal puts me out for the night in terms of sex as my stomach hates what my mouth loves.

That said, Ice cream can be pretty sexy on the body, as can chocolate sauce (only on boobs, keep it off the ass!) but there is also a great sketch by the late great Dave Allen (a fantastic Irish comedian and staunch atheist) who takes the cliche of sexy food and eating and turns it on its head.

This is why I married a chef.

I wrote a novel about a couple who secretly hook up in a restaurant. I figured it obligatory to include a scene in the pantry with various applications of sauces and creams.

I'm not a "Foodie" either, but years ago I found myself in a food rut and holding a set of orders to Korea, so I decided to stop being picky and eat things I've never tried before. Korea was incredible! but Thai I've never developed a big liking for. When I ended up in Denver I discovered good Mexican food and Vietnamese co-workers taught me the joys of Pho (which is Vietnamese, not Thai) and how to identify faux pho. I miss those co-workers so much, I put several of them in my story "We're a Wonderful Wife" and even gave them a Pho restaurant.

I recently discovered basa, a DELICIOUS white fish, I love it, I'll eat it three times a day, any way you want to make it.

Did not like Avocado toast. I personally consider Avocados the most flavorless fruit ever foisted on the American palate and Avocado toast is just a flavorless way of wringing money out of your wallet

I had an interesting dinner where a newly married couple decided to indulge in the wife's early fantasy of what married life would be. The bride's young self thought that married couples eat dinner naked, so to fulfill her fantasy she made tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, which was what her young self could make at the time, and they had a naked dinner and carried it beyond what the bride's young self could imagine.
