Episode 4: Romantic Food

As Shakespeare didn't put it, "If food be the food of love, eat food." That's how we would put it, though, and we are turning your Valentine's Day into a scorcher with a feast of noted aphrodisiacs, from green M&Ms to ambergris. You know that movie Love Actually? This episode is ten times more romantic than that. Visit the web site, www.spilledmilkpodcast.com, for an exclusive photo of the ultimate jellybean pickup line. And save us some ambergris.

    This show was very infectious. Every time I look at the "clam" sweet heart I can't help but smile, and was busting a gut listening to you both lose it a bit! Thanks.

    Funny, our dvd rental of Sweeney Todd arrived the same day I listened to this episode. Will be looking for(but not smelling)the character wearing ambergris. Molly, your laughter is infectious!

    Thanks for being laugh out loud funny as usual.
    Wouldn't stroke the mucuna pruriens pod and then approach one's beloved though unless getting low down and itchy is the aim – given it’s a main ingredient of itching powder :(
    Blumenthal is said to have paired ambergris with caviar in the courtly dish. However he allegedly led up to this with ... ambergris and chocolate milkshake.

    I used to work at a luxury French hotel and I was always amazed by how much people were willing to spend for the chocolate covered strawberries. Your comments really made me laugh.
