You share every one of your meals with your followers. So, it only makes sense that we finally get some good social media icons made from food. Created by Ukranian food artist, Daryna Kossar, the icons are worthy of any smartphone screen, and will act as a reminder to post your lunch.
Kossar also creates other fun food sculptures, including Super Mario Bros. and other cute characters seen below.

Although Foodiggity would never indulge in something as trivial and self-involved as sharing our current meal via social media… The practice is about to be taken to levels of intolerability once unreachable with a mere smartphone and Instagram account.
#Dinnercam, hashtag intentional, is your new social media nightmare. It encourages the restaurant patron to actually pick up their meal from the table, stand, and carry it to a food photo booth. At which time, the person who you’ll soon be unfollowing, can choose from a number of lighting effects, take a pic of their grub, and overshare it at will.
And, because “Having only digital evidence of your current meal is not enough!” said nobody ever, the #Dinnercam will provide an actual print of the photo.
MWEB, who is responsible for this watershed moment in foodiot culture, claims that the #Dinnercam is not meant for mass production, and is only a “tongue-in-cheek campaign” about human interactions in public environments. Let’s never make this happen.
Do you like cappuccino? Or, do you hit the ‘like’ button when you see pictures of coffee?
Either way, you can give any beverage a thumbs up with the Social Cappuccino Stencil Set. If you’d rather tweet your coffee, you can do that with the included Twitter stencil. Set of 3 social stencils are available here.

As hard as it is to believe, there might just be a way to cure people of their smartphone and social media addiction. And, it may be as simple as borrowing the same technology that’s used to get your dog to stop chewing on their stitches.
Coca-Cola has come up with the brilliantly spoofy Social Media Guard. Once the smartphone addict is fitted with their cone of shame, they’d seemingly be unable to continue looking down at their phone, and actually enjoy the world around them.
Of course, Coke wants us to believe that this new lust for life will involve consumption of their product — along with the occasional appreciation of a sunset, your cat, and family time.
But, before you start looking up from your phone, please like or follow Foodiggity on your social media platform of choice. Enjoy.
To help get your kids their carbs, and start them on their path to social media addiction, Birds Eye has unleashed Mashtags — potato snacks shaped like social media icons.
With fun shapes like hashtags, emoticons, and “at” symbols — the kids will be glued to their smartphones and ignoring you in no time.
Kids… Just be sure to follow Foodiggity on Twitter and Facebook. We’re #awesome.
