The Top Five Strangest Aphrodisiacs in the World

What Would You Eat or Drink in the Name of Great Sex?

Contrary to what sex books and Valentine's Day cards might have you believe, aphrodisiacs aren't always very attractive. In many places around the world, the time-honored tradition of chocolate and oysters has taken a back seat to some very bizarre and stomach-churning alternatives. But if you're like most people I know, the prospect of a revved-up night in the bedroom takes precedence over Fear Factor style inconvenience. Translation: you'll try anything for hot sex. Or will you? Have a look at five of the strangest aphrodisiacs on the planet and find out just how horny you really are...

1) Bat Meat

Vampires might cringe at the irony, but in Indonesia and Malaysia, eating bat meat as a way to spice things up in the bedroom is common practice. These creatures are easy to find, cost virtually nothing, and have the local reputation of being extremely reliable in the sexual aid department. Of course, before you can enjoy the aphrodisiac effect, you have to get past the look of your dinner first. In fact, bats are often served whole like a Maine lobster, which means an up-close-and-personal with Dracula's alter-ego. The rodent-like body, the leathery wings, the creepy teeth...you get the idea. But hey, you could always just keep your eyes closed, pretend the bat is really a chicken breast, and fantasize about all the fun you're going to have with your partner afterwards. And if you get an overwhelming urge to suck on his or her neck during the night, you'll know why.
