I seem to be unusual in that pictures of food have no effect on me.

Does seeing pictures of food make you want food?

    No. Sassypants is powerless against me.

    Zero affect.


    Because I eat food porn type meals 3-5 times a day. It's tough work, but someone has to do it.

    Not really. Honestly can't say I've ever had to eat something I've seen a photo of, right then and there.

    Not at all. But I love to look. I do appreciate a good meal. It also gives me a lot of ideas. I guess my love for cooking has something to do with it.

    Only if its hardcore food porn. And we're talking pizza with everything on it!

    No but really, I cant look at food and it does nothing for me. If I can SMELL it, that's another thing.

    It depends on if I'm already hungry and the type of food porn. Doughnuts, cake, convenience foods not so much. Steak, lobster, Chinese food, pretty veggies. *Stomach growls*

    Food shows. Commercials. Pictures.
    Donuts in particular, or anyone mentioning sushi. YUP. I suffer the craves.

    Not immediately, but if I look at a picture of something super delicious, it will make me want to try recreating it sometime in the near future.

    Yes

    But like we discussed before, I feel the way you do about food porn except with eye candy threads.


    eta: I'm an advertiser's dream-- it's extremely easy to make me want food

    It doesn't matter what I just ate, I always want more.

    Which explains how I ended up on MFP.

    Sometimes it does, if it's good photography and food I like. Bad photos can sometimes suppress my appetite. Sloppy photography doesn't belong in porn.

    No, it does not even in the slightest.
