    I am guilty of doing this once in a while. Its a combination of accountability, showing off good creations, and my personal favorite.."This is diet food?" just to prove that healthy eating isn't all twigs and berries.

    I stayed at a bed and breakfast for a few nights this week.

    You bet I took pictures of the food!!

    It was presented so beautifully, it was practically a work of art!

    However, I haven't posted them on Facebook but I think I should :D

    I don't see why it bothers you... I would love it if more of my friends posted pics of what they're eating (as long as its not like a tuna sandwich or something else boring).

    Haha I'm totally guilty. When I travel pretty much all of my Facebook posts are food related. Even when I'm not if I try something new and different (like dragon fruit last week) I take a picture with my phone and up it goes! Basically my Facebook chronicles everything that makes me happy, and a lot of the time that ends up being food. I guess that's why I'm on MFP too. :)

    I post pictures of Dinner's that I make.

    It gets my friends asking what the recipe is and such. If it gets my friends and family trying new things and getting healthier stuffs in the process I don't see why it should bother anyone. :/

    Besides....if they don't like it. They don't have to look.

    I don't do it often, but every once in a great blue moon I do! Why not??? Food is soooo full of color and we, as humans, eat with our eyes as much as our stomachs! I would never do it in a restaurant (or a crappy tv dinner)...seems a little gauche, but something that's been home cooked I will! Enjoy the pics and let it give you some recipe ideas!!

    I am guilty of doing this! I love cooking so I like to take pictures of the dishes that turn out really well. I guess I take of a picture of it because I am proud of it and want to share my success. I also like to hear the opinions of my friends, who else am I going to share recipes with? lol :)

    Guilty! 4 of my friends and myself do "girls night" every Thursday and we post pictures of the food we make. We pick out recipes to try and meet at the one girls' house and cook together. We actually have friends on Facebook who look forward to the posts:)

    Food porn. I shows off their cooking skills, gives others ideas and is way better than some of the horrible things I see people post on social media sites (read: drama, inappropriate pics...etc...)

    I post pictures of my food all the time! Whether a restaurant has a beautiful presentation, or I am really proud of a dish I made... cooking is an art, and I love food, so why not?

    This. I do it all the time!

    I do it sometimes but only if I'm cooking something I think is wow, until i started trying to get the weight off I use to go to some top end restaurants and use to take pics there too, I'm just a complete foodie I suppose.

    We do that on AR15.com too... the only rule is you must post pics of a weapon(s) along with the food...

    When I make something ridiculously amazing from scratch, you better believe I'm rubbing in in everyone's face and making them hungry. Girl's gotta show off her skillzzz. ;)

    I have friends who do that... I like it. I would probably do it too if my food looked pretty and I wasn't too lazy to take a picture!
