LONDON (Reuters) - Young people are using cooking as foreplay to sex, according to a report.
Eight percent of 18- to 34-year-olds have cooked naked with a partner while 62 percent regard cooking as sensual, it said.
The report was compiled by psychologist Dr. Colin Gill on behalf of food company Sharwood's.
In spicing up their love lives, a third of young Britons said a wok was their most essential kitchen item. "As the consumption of eastern foods is set to increase, we can hope to see more people having fun in the kitchen and using food as an effective social tool," said Gill.
Only seven percent of young people wear an apron in the kitchen and only four percent use a rolling pin, the report said.
"The decline in the use of the apron represents a significant change in the nation's cooking habits," it added. "The apron can be seen as representative of an older generation's more formal and restrictive views on cooking."
