The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Dogs, when they’re not destroying your couch or raiding the fridge, can be pretty awesome. Winston The Dog does a little bit of everything — mostly awesome.
After his owner, photographer Scott Cromwell, documented him ridding the fridge of hot dogs — Winston became the subject of a healthy-eating photo series.
The extremely obedient dog can be seen in the series with various fruits balanced on his head, and a colorful background to match. Good dog.

Is it still food art, if the subject is completely inedible? That’s the question artist T.Q. Lee asks with Inedible, a photo series of food styling created from everyday and household items.
LEGO cereal, donuts made from socks, or a layer cake made from mud — Lee’s project challenges our perception of what makes us hungry, or grosses us out. The hot dog made from a rubber glove does a bit of both.

As we all know, anything wrapped in tin foil instantly becomes futuristic. Photographer Giorgia Zanellato knows this, and has created the photo series Space Food. Included is a cheeseburger from the future, a space donut, and another oblong food item that we can’t quite make out. It must be from the future.

A commentary on global food waste, Austrian photographer Klaus Pichler brings us One-Third. Referring to the one-third of food produced worldwide that is lost or wasted, the series of anti-food porn turns a revolting concept such as decaying food, and makes it somewhat appealing — as long as you don’t have Smell-o-Vision. See more beautiful decay here.
