No.

I think any body fluid can spread the AIDs.
3 :
Definitely Not. It has to be blood or semen.

The HIV / AIDS would have to be spread through blood. So, they would have to have a bleeding cut on their mouth or hand and get blood on the food. Then, an open cut or wound on your body or in your mouth would have to make contact with their blood. This appears highly unlikely, but still possible. Although, the virus would most likely not survive in the environment outside of the body or that of the saliva in your mouth. Saliva won't transfer the virus, though. Just don't make blood to blood contact. And, obviously, definitely don't have sex with the person, so make sure it's not an aphrodesiac that you're eating.

No. Well maybe if you are chewing for one another. *gross*

Well actually.. it's not impossible but the HIV virus doesn't survive long enough in the open air to pose a significant threat.
