The newest 'Fifty Shades of Grey' book has awkward food-related sex scenes — and people don't know how to feel

• E.L. James' new book tells the story of "Fifty Shades Darker" from Christian Grey's point-of-view.
• In "Darker," Christian and Anastasia have sex in the middle of cooking stir fry.
• Later they have sex again, this time using vanilla ice cream as part of the foreplay.
• BuzzFeed published excerpts of the scenes and people had  hilarious reactions.

"Fifty Shades of Grey" author E.L. James just published a new erotic novel from Christian Grey's perspective, and the sex scenes have people scratching their heads.

"Darker" tells the narrative of "Fifty Shades Darker" from Christian's point-of-view, which means we get a lot of intimate glimpses into the mind of the wealthy kink-obsessed protagonist. 

BuzzFeed reporter Scott Bryan read through "Darker" and highlighted some of the wackier erotic scenes, pointing to one involving Christian and Anastasia making love while in the middle of preparing a chicken stir-fry. In what appears to be a food-safety concern, Christian tells Anastasia to put the uncooked chicken back in the fridge before they engage in sexual relations.

Anastasia teases Christian in the kitchen while chopping vegetables, eventually leading him to take matters into his own hands. Here's the section of the book many think is inadvertently hilarious:

"'I think we'll eat later,' Because right now I'm going to f--- your brains out. 'Put the chicken in the fridge.'"

Of course, people's various kinks and erotic novels of choice are personal and not to be shamed. But that doesn't mean others might not find James' novel "Darker" more baffling than sensual. 

Bryan also points out another food-related romp, this time directly involving ice cream. The scene was so graphic that Bryan didn't tweet the full excerpt, though he did include it in an article on BuzzFeed.

Warning: The rest of this article contains graphic sexual language and descriptions.

Here's a section of the subsequent scene:

"I devour what’s left of the ice cream in her navel using my tongue. She's sticky. But not everywhere. Yet.
I kneel between her thighs and trail another spoonful of ice cream down her belly and into her pubic hair, to my ultimate goal."

The scene continues in graphic detail that you can probably imagine for yourself, but we won't repeat here. If you must know the lurid details, head over to Bryan's full article breaking down the craziest sex scenes in "Darker."
