aphrodisiac fig

 

get figgy

Legend has it that eating a fresh fig while naked in front of a woman is one of the world's most erotic acts. (Can't vouch, since I'm not in the habit of eating naked in front of other women). Because when its split down the center and cradled by a palm, the fig's pink flesh is said to resemble a woman's sweet unmentionables.


The luscious fruit's womanly wiles were immortalized in the words of one of literature's dirtiest birds, author D. H. Lawrence, who dedicated a poem entitled “Figs” to its sensuality.

 

Some historians suspect that the fig's original home was the Garden of Eden, and that the fig was the original temptress, the true forbidden fruit.


But even those who still cling to the myth of the apple find the fig's charms to be undeniable. This soft, plump fruit is a fine source of iron and potassium-minerals much needed in the horizontal pas de deux.
