when we see food or a hot girl?

Well, Johnnycakes... because saliva is the first step in digestion. When you see something you want to eat, it's a Pavlovian response.
I really hope that if you ever have to go to jail or prison... you seriously think about changing your nickname.

I know about food. I dont know about a hot girl. Those are enzymes in the saliva to break down simple sugars. Put cotton candy in your mouth and your saliva will start breaking it down. The mouth just breaks down simple sugars not proteins and fatty acids

The brain registers that something good is coming or seeing and tells the saliva gland under the tongue to produce saliva. It's human conditioning sort of.Remember the Pavlov dog??Whenever he heard the bell ring, he drooled because he sensed something good was coming, even if he didn't get it.It's a subconcious reaction.

Food is natural because it's used to break down food when eating, so seeing food makes your body think you'll soon be eating the food.
For a hot girl... you must be experienced in cunnilingus for that to happen, I suspect.

cuz with the food thing, you have to have saliva in your mouth to swallow it and congest it and that kinda stuff! and well no comment on the hot girl...
