What do you all think of the word “foodie”?
I really like food. I go out of my way to try awesome food
and I try everything at least once. Does that make me a foodie? I like to cook
and create cool meals but I don’t consider culinary arts a passion by any
means. Does that make me NOT a foodie?
Foodie….what a strange word. Since when did adding “ie” at
the end of a noun make it a human being with some sort of obsession/passion for
said noun? I really love Netflix, so I suppose that makes me a Netflixie. Or
maybe “foodie” is just one of those 21st century phenomenons coined
on social media platforms like Instagram where foodie culture explodes with
pictures of breakfast platters that probably aren’t the same color tone in real life. From what I see, usually it seems to be a
self-proclaimed term with limited professional ring to it. Gordon Ramsay
probably has never used the word in his entire life.
I am not saying anything against it – I’m trying to
understand what the heck a foodie is! Any thoughts?
