Nothing says “sexy” like slaving over a hot stove and spending dinner with crazy Uncle Tom and passive-aggressive Aunt Martha, am I right? I’m joking, people.

I read a column over at Yahoo! Shine titled, “The Sexy Side Effects of Thanksgiving Dinner.” It’s not the interaction with annoying relatives that get people in the mood (Obviously), it’s the food served that can get your libido going.

According to the article, pumpkin pie is an olfactory sexual aphrodisiac, fig/cranberry sauce is made up of vitamins and increase your sex drive, chocolate charges your endorphins and wine, well, decreases your inhibitions. There are a number of other food items that are mentioned as well.

I know that many people probably had their Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, but Christmas is less than a month away. The article has recipes linked to for each item mentioned - all the better to help you bring sexy back to your holiday table.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
