Food: Salivating Over Food Pics

Today I wanted to share a food porn pic. I love salivating over pictures of food. I know...I'm greedy, but actually there are many food porn lovers out there. For those of you who don't know what food porn is, here's a semi-official definition from Wikipedia:

'Food porn is a glamorized spectacular visual presentation of cooking or eating in advertisements, infomercials, cooking shows or other visual media; foods boasting a high fat and caloric content, exotic dishes that arouse a desire to eat or the glorification of food. Food porn often takes the form of food photography and styling that presents food provocatively, in a similar way to glamour photography.' (from Wikipedia)

There are whole blogs and websites like Food Porn Daily that are just devoted to this subject so I'm not alone in my love of this little hobby ;-)

So here's my food porn pic. These are called yum yums! What a perfect name, huh? It's not an amazing photo like some of the pros, but these sure were good when I ate them. They were so good that I made sure to take a picture of them before they were eaten ;-)


Usually I'm looking at food porn just to salivate, but often I get inspired to try to recreate the recipes or to make up my own recipe. So it's a fun thing to do!

I hope you enjoy my food porn. Do you like to photograph food? Or are you a foodie in general like me maybe? Leave us a comment and tell us.

  1. I am curious about what they are. They kind of look like brownies, and also very yummy.

  2. Sarah,
    Thanks for commenting. They sort of like a glazed donut but they're square like brownies. They are so good! :)

  3. Sounds great. I probably like sweet things a bit too much but I'd like to taste those sometime.

    1. Boy that sounds familiar! Bags of candy don't last as long as they should around me.
