I have read that eel is suppose to have an effect on your ability to perform… in bed. In an article on “Natural Aphrodisiacs” I also found that wasabi might have a similar effect:

“Wasabi (Horseradish) — While some people believe that Sushi has aphrodisiacal effects all on its own, my Japanese friends let me in on a little secret. Apparently, that green stuff that comes with it ( Wasabi or horseradish) is what’ll really get your twig and berries ripe and ready. So the next time you go out for sushi, ask for some extra Wasabi; it’s a kick and will make your eyes tear, but you can make your gal’s eyes tear when you take her home and show her Wasaaaaaaabi.”

Caviar too is mentioned as an aphrodisiac. Fish eggs contain a large amount of beneficial vitamins. They are rich in phosphorus and are very nourishing to nerve cells. Their apparent aphrodisiac powers are reinforced by vodka. So get yourself into Absolut shape for the night…

Hmm. Not eating that much fish eggs, but I thought I ate a lot of wasabi having those wasabi peas like every other day. Maybe I don’t eat enough? (Always looking for an excuse to eat more wasabi peas… mmmmm…)
