Best Answer

There is no proven science behind so called "aphrodisiacs".

All information available is anecdotal and unscientific.

The easiest way to explain the aphrodisiac effect is this: they will not work on someone who is not already predisposed to like/love you. There are no magic pills or foods that will get someone who hates you to turn around 180 degrees and love you.

Aphrodisiac foods tend to be the ones a couple would enjoy when they're already close. For example: chocolate deserts, Chinese food.

Other "aphrodisiacs" people consider are drugs. Alcohol, ecstasy, etc. These are not aphrodisiacs as they only lower a person's inhibitions and do not increase romantic attraction.
