Food Porn!

Honest.  Newsday has 190 web pages titled "Food Porn!".  (The exclamation point is theirs.)  If you're expecting phallus or pudenda shaped "food products" you'd be wrong. I include several images:

#68 Potato chips at Deli King in New Hyde Park, photo credit: Erica Marcusof

Personally, I find it difficult to generate a prurient interest in salads or potato chips.  Am I alone in this?

Under a picture of grits there is a link to a story about Carolyn Brown of Boutte, Louisiana scalding her sleeping boyfriend with a pot of boiling grits.  Does that qualify as porn?

The closest I could find (and I'm stretching it) is image 122, the suggestive curves of triped bass and yellow tail sushi at Sushi Ya (Photo credit: Newsday Photo/Michael E. Ach):

Your experience might vary.
