It’s you and pizza forever…and burgers, ice cream, sushi, and macaroons.

You have dedicated your social media life to sharing food with the world. No one is more dedicated to taking the perfect food shot at just the right angle. You spend more time editing your food photos than it takes you to actually eat the meal. You talk about your dish in detail and you use words “moist, scrumptious, crunch, and melt in your mouth” on a frequent basis. If a food becomes your soulmate you put it on a pedestal for the world to see but you keep it real with your reviews if a food is less than stellar and you let your loyal foodies know about it. You can’t put a flattering filter on food poisoning.

2. You travel to eat the local cuisine

Whether it’s a little old lady who makes the best churros from scratch to the local mom and pop food stand that you have stand at for hours before you can take a bite of some of the best natural ingredients in the world but it’s all worth it. Your vacation pictures are more coconuts drinks and overstuffed tacos and less white sand and blue ocean waves.

When a local restaurant is finally making its grand opening you are first in line, you even called months in advance to make sure you are on the list. But you know you've made it when the restaurant owners know you from you’re food blog and are dying to know your opinion. You make sure to take all your friends and family to them in order to give them good business. You remain loyal to your local cuisine. Food is where the heart is and you wouldn't even had your start as a foodie if it hadn't been for the locals introducing you to some pretty amazing grub.

Even if you get teased for taking food pictures before every meal don’t stop. Keep taking those food porn shots and eat as much as you can while you can. Tell the haters to eat their heart outs with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
