Eye Candy
The term eye candy refers to attractiveness, a common slang term for visually appealing persons or effects used to draw mass attention is eye candy. The implication is that they are eye-catching in a superficial fashion, for example due to adding an element of sexuality. Like actual "candy", this addition is seen to be neither nutritious nor substantial, but rather provides a potentially addictive appeal which will sustain the attention of a wider audience, possibly despite their better nature.

Ok, I'd like to start this by talking about Jeff Goldblum. Now, under normal circumstances Jeff isn't what could be considered eye candy (in my opinion), however, one of the last scenes in Independance Day and a brief moment in one of the Holsten Pils ads (in the early 90's) definitely qualify him as eye candy in my book (it's the way he walks in the desert and the smile (and knowing look) in the advert!)!
So, my point is that eye candy is all in the eye of the beholder at any given moment, or is that every dog has its day or could it be that one beholder's trash is another beholder's treasure - or all of the above!
Thank you to all those who were willing to be photographed
