 What is the milkshake? 

Wikipedia says that according to Kelis the milkshake is a metaphor for "something that makes women special." While unclear about what exactly that is, we can all agree it is a euphemism. For those of us who need a little help in this department, we can thank the internet for this recipe for bringing boys to the yard. 

 

Fuckable...what? 

It is wild how even in casual social situations we manage to sexualize food by making it feminine and consumable. In previous episodes we have talked about how women are depicted as food, but what about when our species just wants to fuck food? Consider this Fox News anchor's breakdown about how the green M&M is suddenly less sexy and no longer a turn-on for him. As promised here is the Skinny Cow logo mentioned in the episode. And just to give you something else that makes you go hmm...we give you sexy fish sticks. Yep. 

 

Monkeys and Meat 

It's a true story dear listener. They really do this! 

 

Why do we sexualize breastfeeding? 

The book mentioned here is Inventing Baby Food: Taste, Health, and the Industrialization of the American Diet by Amy Bentley. You can find an excerpt here. To see the Time cover for yourself and learn more about the story behind the image see this article.
