Forget the naked chef... How about dining in the buff?
by Monika Bartyzel, Posted Jul 26th 2008 @ 12:00PM
NSFW Warning: Nude dining means nude people in the clip above.
So... I was scouring foodtv.ca, and one of their blogs led me to something interesting.
We've had the naked chef who really wasn't naked at all, but have you heard about naked dining? This clip is actually from last year, but it showcases a group who get together, rent a room, and dine in the buff together. Basically, while it's cold outside, they shed their clothes, sit down, and chow down in their birthday suits.
Now, all the power to them, but does it really have to be a buffet? That just seems ill thought out. On the plus side -- if you spill something, it'd be real easy to clean up! (And they claim that there are no hot soups on the menu, so that gets rid of that searing risk.)
Have you ever dined nude?

There's something for everyone out there, isn't there?

My mom and little sister are here, and I'm home from college. I browse with the door open, and I'm just glad they weren't there when I saw this at the top of the page. Please, please hide things like this behind the jump from now on?

7-26-2008 @4:23PM Allison said... Absolutely -- for 40 years now. Social family nudism is definitely one of the most egalitarian, wholesome, liberating lifestyles imaginable. People get to know each other as who they really are, not by what they're wearing or image they're trying to project.
Oh yeah, and the food. Can you imagine fully enjoying a juicy slice of watermelon for a change? Letting crumbs fall where they may? Watching kids REALLY enjoy a drippy ice cream cone? No laundromats needed, no expensive, polluting detergents, no fussing with stain removers when you slurp pasta with a fantastic sauce that always falls front and center on your shirt or blouse.
Check out the American Association of Nude Recreation www.aanr.com to find a family club near you -- and be sure to check out their restaurants at the same time. They range from basic lunch grill to elegant full-service dinners. Just as food seems to taste better outside, it can rise to the level of sublime when you enjoy it nude.

@Allison: I dine clothed and I don't have those problems because I'm not a slob, I guess. Live and let live, one way isn't better than the other.

I think being nude is perfectly fine in a natural setting like a beach or some other place where people go swimming, where wearing clothes makes no practical sense. But in a restaurant?? Nothing wrong with it, I suppose, but having my flabby hairy ass hanging out with everybody else doing the same just wouldn't do much for my appetite. More power to these folks if they're comfortable with that, though.

Tim, seriously, you're worried about a picture of a bunch of fat old lumpy white people? They are naked, yes. But this is probably as far from pornographic as you can get. Nudity does not equal pornography. The extent to which us Americans are such prudes always amazes me! If that was picture of a bunch of people with machine guns and bombs exploding, you would have been fine with it, but a bunch of old nudists is somehow objectionable... Mind boggling.

7-29-2008 @3:00AM BS said... If the dimmed image of some nudists bother you to the point that you feel the need to suggest that they be hidden on this blog, you need to consider your up-bringing and why you are ashamed of the human body and why you are thinking inappropriate thoughts simply by seeing a naked body. This is a major problem with American society... If you haven't had a discussion about the human body (and/or other cultures) with your kids/parents at this point and you are reading this post, you may already be too late to prevent them from being as closed minded as you...

Getting ice cream all over yourself isn't exactly fun. You end up sticky and if you don't clean it up fast enough and have any amount of body hair, well... let's just say that I'd prefer to launder my clothing.
