This sensual campaign created by [Publicis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-like-nobodys-watching), in conjunction with Montreal based photographers Leda and St-Jacques takes food love in a literal sense. The raunchy food campaign is the product of a Quebec restaurant guide called ‘Guide Des Restos 2014’ that plays on “the ambiguity of the “18+” for its 18th edition.”

The publication is an experimentation on advertising to see if seduction is as good a seller when it is combined with food and restaurants, with a [naughty slogan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sugar-wood), "we are pleased to provide you with drool-worthy images for the past 18 years."

The food publicity shoot contains food ingredients that contain [highly suggestive sexual innuendos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-chocolates-1). An oyster and a yam in the form of female genitalia, a piece of steak in phallic form, a bust made of dough and melons and more.
