Not to kink-shame, but it\u2019s hard to look sexy when you\u2019re slurping out the insides of a sea creature. And yet oysters are considered a very romantic food. They\u2019re a date-night menu staple, especially around Valentine\u2019s Day<\/a>, and Vancouver restaurateurs are well aware that lovey-dovey couples across the city will be ordering oysters on February 14.<\/p>\n

In part, the timely popularity of this particular shellfish is likely due to rumours that it\u2019s an aphrodisiac. Oysters have a lot of zinc, which many have believed is linked to sex drive, but in reality, there isn\u2019t any hard proof. The lack of evidence (despite probably lots of willing study participants) suggests that oysters’ being an aphrodisiac is just a myth\u2014albeit, one that has been around since the ancient Greeks<\/a>.<\/p>\n
