You have to love language!  For anyone who has ever loved to watch Jamie Oliver, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall (I think I have that right!), or Master Chef, it's obvious why these guys are such fun to watch. The talent - and the food - are fantastic!  But between their colourful presentations and the amazing pictures of yummy foods we see in newspapers, TV, etc., and our ever-growing love of food, would it shock most people to know there is something deeply psychological about this relatively new voyeuristic passion; we even have a term for it!
Gastro-porn is all about the way Americans and Britains often replace love - and sex - for food.  Kind of ruins the appetite, huh?!
