One word… Marketing Want to get your product of the shelf? Then play on this

[@kalisthenes6650]

All food is an aphrodisiac as I doubt anyone who is starving to death fancies a shag. (The potato story supports this hypothesis). Also most foods that are considered to be aphrodisiacs are really all about how people (generally attractive ones) look when eating said food. See any model photo shoot with a banana. Also Aisling got the oyster for a reason. No one wants to see Alan eating one. ;p

[@SGast]

There is another reason that oysters and chocolate are considered aphrodisiacs. They are quite rich in zink. Ejaculate is quite high in zink, which is the reason that many men have quite low zink levels. Zink is also important for testosteron and low levels of that can decrease the libido. As for champagne I imagine the lowering of inhibitions that you get from alcohol has something to do with it.

Got a bit nervous when Alan started eating that potato. Never do that people; raw potatoes are actually poisonous, especially if they have sprouted.

[@ppleeatpple]

If by poison you mean possible stomach discomfort or diahrea (or similar), then it's possible. VERY unlikely to get too sick from the lectin. Although, Alan need not worry since he spit it out

[@babboon5764]

It depends on the potato species. Plus, even when cooked Green potato is somewhat toxic. Originally, some South American tribes used to eat soil very similar to kaolin with their potatoes. By themselves the potato would have been quite toxic, the kaolin like soil acted as a sort of binding/chelating agent to which the toxins adhered rather than being ingested through the gut. Who said this place isn't educational?

[@hjt091]

He spits it out

[@almostfm]

I got to talk briefly with Christopher Hitchens many years ago. That sounds _exactly_ like something he'd said.

[@AnkurBorwankar]

Would you be willing to say a bit more about your encounter with Hitch?

[@klaxoncow]

Well, as food keeps you alive - and most people prefer sex with a living partner, where possible - and provides you the energy you need to keep going - as, after all, it can be quite the exhaustive process - then one could argue that, yes, all foods could be considered at least a "base level" aphrodisiac, from a "basic survival" perspective. As noted, the Irish got busy with the baby-making, once there was a lack of starvation to be worried about. In the sense that starving to death would prove a rather persistent distraction from other activities, having a healthy diet could, therefore, be said to genuinely be a method of increasing one's libido. Admittedly, only to "normal levels", but that's still an improvement on the "less than normal" levels that would be caused from perpetual malnutrition, and being more concerned to fill one's stomach than get one's leg over. Depending on how you want to look at it, the Internet might be stating something so obvious, it's not worth mentioning... but it's not technically wrong, is it?

[@Farweasel]

You're echoing what's said in the show BUT there's a huge flaw in this. Research shows that populations living near starvation levels have *higher* fertility levels than better nourished ones. (And no, not because it co-varies with access to contraception .... They are apparently actually more fertile).

[@klaxoncow]

@@Farweasel Oh, indeed. If we're going to get all serious about things, then you can note that there is, in fact, a close correlation between the human development index (HDI) and the fertility rate around the world. You can superimpose the two maps on top of each other and there are only a few exceptions (e.g. China's "one child" policy skews the numbers there). The highest "children per couple" rate in the world is found in Afghanistan. Followed by Central Africa. Besides being extremely poor, Afghanistan has been a near constant state of war for decades upon decades (because when the Russians aren't invading, the Americans are, seemingly). And, in Central Africa, we're looking at the Congolese War and the neighbours that large conflict took in. Whereas, every industrialised Western nation has a "child per couple" rate below replacement value (which is 2.2 - yes, it's a little over 2, because it's not just "children replacing their parents" but you also have to account for child mortality, that they themselves reach the age of becoming parents in their turn as well). But - aye, here's the rub - the last time that Western nations were above replacement value was... after WII. The post-war "baby boom". The thing to note is that war - that is, a loss of your population - and poverty - the struggle to survive - are big variables in increasing that "children per couple" value. Thomas Malthus came up with "the Malthusian Collapse". The idea that a population could become so large that it could not support itself and, thus, would inevitably collapse. But what's often forgotten is that Malthus was writing before Darwin. Before natural selection by evolution. So he took no account of the idea that, well, maybe evolution has already thought of this problem and mechanisms exist to counter it. Basically, if you threaten a population - through loss of life by war, or through poverty - then that "children per couple" rate rises to compensate. One could think of it literally as "restocking" the population after a great loss of life in the war. So, yeah, after WWII, we saw the "baby boom". Or Afghanistan, locked in decades of conflict and poverty, has developed the highest fertility rate of them all. But, conversely, untroubled by war or poverty, we also see the reverse - all industrialised Western nations, with democracy, healthcare, plentiful food, etc. quite naturally fall below replacement value. Because the thing is, unlike China, there have been no policies to encourage this - it just occurs naturally, when untroubled by great loss of life or high infant mortality. And we do see this everywhere. Because as the standard of living has risen throughout the world, the size of families shrinks. Evolution already though of it. The population rises when it's threatened by war and poverty (where poverty links to, you know, poorer medical outcomes and higher infant mortality and so forth). But it actually naturally drops to below replacement value otherwise - and it's significant that it settles below replacement, as the population will actually fall in peace and prosperity (until, logically, it goes a bit too far, threatens the population and things temporarily rise again). There is actually a natural balance there - though humanity, in its quest for conquest, upsets the balance through needless wars. So, I mean, if you must force me to be serious, rather than being silly for the jokes, then, yes, you'll actually see higher fertility in malnourished countries than those of plentiful food - it's that compensation in action. Starvation threatens your population, so fertility rates rise to compensate for the loss of life. It's not so much that Malthus was wrong - logically, he's perfectly right. But that he "missed a bit", as he wrote before Darwinian evolution and the notion that, like, nature has already thought of this and it has its mechanisms to compensate and re-balance things. Which makes abundant sense, if you think about it, as evolution has been at this game for billions of years. It's been there and done that innumerable times before. Though, yes, there's perhaps an uncomfortable philosophy in this. Because we all like to think that we decide these things - that we are masters of our fate and captain of our souls - but, well, this suggests that there's an underlying "collective subconscious" going on here that responds to population threats. But, well, however much we might not like how this re-paints our notions of individualism, the numbers and graphs are all there. It is a thing. As noted, it's not just how the populations statically are right now, it also perfectly tracks through time. When the Western world was threatened by WWII, the same reaction occurred - the "baby boom". It actually correlates. It is a real measurable thing. However we might feel about it philosophically. But, please, let me get back to being flippant and silly again, with bad jokes. It's much more fun. :)

@@lynettegraves6261 I've actually read about people who react only to red wine and not white, which is a bit easier to understand (albeit still pretty rare). Red wine is made with grape skins in and so contains many compounds that are either not present in white wine at all or present in much lower quantities. That's also why they look and taste so different. But champagne is just . . . bubbly white wine. Allergies do get weirdly specific, and there are a few differences in the way champagne is made, so I guess it's possible. It does seem odd, though.
