Steak, and McDonald's top list of romantic food as Sex Education returns

As thousands of Brits prepare to tune in to Sex Education this evening, new research from recipe box service Green Chef reveals the dishes that get Brits’ pulse racing the most, as well as the biggest turn offs.

Steak has been voted Brits’ number one romantic dinner choice, with chocolate and oysters following closely in second and third place.

Traditionally believed ‘aphrodisiac’ foods, asparagus and sushi also top the list. However, one in 10 (10%) admitted that McDonalds is in fact their number one choice to prepare for a night of passion.

The full top 10 list of ‘sexy’ foods includes:

  1. Steak Dinner

  2. Chocolate

  3. Oysters

  4. Curry

  5. Lobster

  6. Roast Dinner

  7. Pizza

  8. Pasta

  9. McDonalds

  10. A fry up

Brits' biggest food turn offs include foods that make you gassy and foods that give you bad breath, with a third saying a bad meal would put them off altogether.

With nearly a quarter of us saying we lack recipe inspiration to get in ‘the mood’ and 25% being dissatisfied with their love life, Green Chef has created a bespoke ‘sexy menu’ to help Brits along.

From Jerusalem Artichoke & Asparagus Risotto to Truffle Dusted Steak With Creamy Hollandaise, Asparagus & Baby Roast Potatoes, there are four new recipes available, guaranteed to spice up your evening.

Green Chef’s Head Chef and Nutritionist, Anna Tebbs said: “It’s clear food can play an important part in strengthening your relationship in and out of the bedroom. I urge anyone lacking inspiration to get out and explore some of the super recipes out there that can help put an extra spark into your libido”
