Finding a Foodie Definition

 "The only thing I like better than talking about food is eating" - John Walters.

Some friends have asked me what exactly is a foodie. They wonder what an exact definition might be, which has made me think a bit. Well, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, this can be defined as somebody that has an enthusiastic interest in the latest food fads.

Foodie Definition

I love that foodie definition, but I think it's a bit short. It lacks a bit more context, don't you think? I don't want to sound too confusing, but I believe a foodie can also be defined as that person who has such an avid interest in the food itself that he/she would like to experience anything related to the culinary world - from how it's made, to where it can be found, and who even will experience the joy of cooking to experience the whole food process.

Don't get confused with the fact that foodies should cook too. They may or may not be Chefs - they can only be regular mortals (like myself) that just enjoy cooking simple dishes and enjoys even more eating what was done.

What do you think? Please leave a comment and let me know. I would love to learn what you think...

  3. I agree. I would consider myself a novice foodie though because I am not good at telling the difference with all flavors
