Raise your hand if you love food. Raise your hand if you consider yourself a foodie. Raise your hand if you consider yourself an ultimate foodie and absolutely have to try all the foodlie-licious dishes that can be found all over the world. Yup, that's what a thought. Clearly, we just all love food and there's no reason not to. Food is comforting and will be there to listen to my problems whenever the bae needs a break from my banter. Food is life and for some people, food is a lifestyle.
There are food fanatics out there that are obsessed with trying new foods and fleeking up their Insta-game for some drool worthy foodporn. Anybody who knows anything about food knows that good food can be found all over the world, you just have to know where to look. A true, self-proclaimed foodie will travel to the ends of the Earth in search of the best foods to keep coming back to. Oh yeah, it's a lot of work to worship food.
