So I got all excited ... er, maybe "excited" isn't the best choice of words ... let's just say I was amused when I saw that Steve Cavendish had retweeted
this storyabout a Christian couple who had abstained from sex for the first 25 months of their marriage. And more to the point, that the husband would eat a whole raw potato to "take himself out of the mood," the story says.
Immediately I thought to myself, Open thread! Bingo! But after a minute or two of research, I found that the story is the work of a parody church newsletter site, LarkNews.com. Yes, you read that correctly — a parody church newsletter site. At least, I'm pretty sure it's a parody, given that if you click on "God's Word for You Today", the message is, "No matter how much you pray, I won't listen."
Anyway, parody or not, it got me thinking. If you were trying to quell those carnal desires burning in your loins, what would be your go-to food? What is the least arousing food you can think of? What is your culinary equivalent of the cold shower?
And what else is on your mind?
