Buzzfeed has so kindly assembled the 101 worst Instagram food photos of all time -- steak makes an unphotogenic appearance, mexican food has an identity crisis, and breakfast has never looked so wrong. (We've never wanted to force this post on people more.) After this, we’re going on a recovery binge of full of the exact opposite (if we do say so ourselves).

I have a thing for most foods topped with a fried egg, a strange disdain for overly soupy tomato sauce, and I can never make it home without ripping off the end of a newly-bought baguette. I like spoons very much.

Sitting here waiting for a midnight pound cake from Orangette to finish baking in its 80 min. journey to a family reunion. Thought I'd sneak in a naughty midnight snack (on a reduction diet)....caught this blog and checked out Buzzfeed.......instantly lost my appetite. Thank you for saving me from myself!!

Reminds me of the time I tried to make carrot cake with purple carrots. I somewhat expected something cool and bright purple, but it looked a lot like that grey ground beef. Urg. Big fail.
