I didn't see a Royale with cheese (though the Cheeseburger De Luxe from Erin Brockovich is close), so it appears the recipes are out of my league.

On the other hand, if I could substitute jam for caviar, I could probably handle this one.

Aphrodisiacs? Last I heard there wasn't any such thing. Sure, there are drugs that heighten sensitivity and make all sorts of activities more enjoyable, but something that universally makes people horny is a myth.

I do like the lore, recipies, etc as it just seems to be a pre-sex ritual. If you and your date are knowingly going to order or make an aphrodisiac then you know you're probably going to get laid that night. Its the delicious way of saying, "Lets get it on."

Thank god for Marvin Gaye and skallas. I'm going to make grilled cheese sandwiches in the buff with an apron and a smile. Bread, butter and cheese, baby... if it's made with love, it's gotta be good. Period.
