#foodporn

As modern, up-to-date, blogg-y girls (these are official terms), there are some recent trends we did not like - but we kept silent, and now we're kind of okay with them. Kind of.

Like Hello Kitty

Crazy nail art

Giant glittery 4 year old child phone cases

Duck lips (okay, we haven't really kept quiet or become okay with that unattractive trend, but you get our drift)

But thanks to an awesome blog post by Adventures in Mediocrity, we've decided to speak out about one that has really REALLY been bothering us.

#foodporn

We, along with Meghan (and hopefully you'll join and we'll all start a revolution!) want to stop people on Instagram (yes, thats us, you and everyone we know) using #foodporn.

We all know at least one person who photographs their food (hey, we do that too, that's not the issue!) and always hashtags food porn. Maybe its baking. Or breakfast. Or a before and after plate photo (we've seen them! Trust us, we know what happens to food. We don't need a photo of the aftermath). But all of this is most definitely not porn.

This is #foodporn

This is not.

#food makes us think 'mmmmm, get in my belly'

#porn makes us think 'how has this account not been blocked yet?'

(source)

#foodporn makes us think 'is that hygenic?'

It's simple.

Lesson over. As homework, please pop over to Adventures in Mediocrity to read Meghan's views on the subject, and IMPORTANT: Watch the video. All the way through. And imagine two of the people on your Instagram feed who always #foodporn as the two people in the video.

It's not pleasant, but nor is any shock therapy. Trust us, you'll never #foodporn again!
