I’m gonna eat you up

It turns out that baby smell triggers endorphin rewards

in a Mother’s brain.

It doesn’t even have to be her baby.

Those rewards are identical to the rush we get when we eat great food
and we can get the signals mixed up.

And so the desire to make nom-nom sounds while munching on a baby’s arm is based in science.

Rubens painted this.

So did Goya.

Actually, even the USDA says babies are delicious.

Presentation may have something to do with this, too.
