I get what you mean but it’s all subjective though, ain’t it? You can have some really good looking food, yet there’s no guarantee it’ll actually taste amazing. I’ve been disappointed at more than one Michelin-starred restaurant.
Sometimes you just wanna have some comfort food, and when you see a pic like OP’s, you know it’s going to hit the spot.
That’s not to say that there isn’t a load of dogshit-looking food posted though. I’ve seen plenty of shit that belongs in the bin.
