True, it seems like there's been an awful lot of verbage here lately on the topic of sex. Perhaps we ought to begin a dialogue on another biological need, like eating.

For instance, I have a problem with salad. I know I ought to eat more of it, but the problem is I just don't like salad very much, particularly the lettuce. It seems a lot like wet paper to me. Often, I feel like I am chewing some kind of wall covering. I've tried using different dressings and putting different things in the salad - like there's one I make with walnuts and bleu cheese, and that's tolerable - but if I'm not concentrating when I eat, I end up eating the walnuts and bleu cheese and leaving the lettuce.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle such a problem with salad?
