Foot fetish: Top five treats for adorable tootsies

We’ve all experienced it before: you spot a hot babe at the pool, checking you out. As she approaches, your heart starts beating faster and faster – she is cute, you’re cute; you should get together multiply this cuteness by two. But then, as you proceed to give this fabulous body the elevator eyes, you spot something unsightly – cracked, dried feet supporting yellow nails that should never be released outside of their shoe confines. You turn away – its just too much – and do the awkward duck and weave to leave, avoiding Big Foot at all costs.
