Winner of the 2023 Association for the Study of Food and Society Book Prize for Edited Volume, this work delves into how Instagram has transformed our relationship with food. Edited by Emily J. H. Contois and Zenia Kish, the collection features contributions from artists, journalists, and scholars who examine the platform as a site for self-identification, influence, transformation, and resistance. Topics range from Hong Kong’s vibrant foodie culture to the historical ties between the platform and feminist eateries, as well as the portrayal of Australia’s livestock producers. The essays reveal a complex landscape where users not only shape their identities and exert influence but also navigate cultural, social, and economic practices. Despite its potential for democratization, Instagram often reinforces existing power dynamics. With an interdisciplinary approach and transnational perspective, the book provides fresh insights into this significant social media space and its profound effects on our daily lives. The diverse contributions from a wide array of authors enrich the discussion, making it relevant for both general readers and experts interested in the intersection of food and social media.
