Here are the 8 best food instagrams guaranteed to make you hungry and suffer from some serious food-envy. We could all stand to waste a little more time staring at pictures of delicious food.
Spoon University
First and foremost Spoon University is a must follow. Updated daily, this instagram is full of delicious food across the nation and even abroad. This food will make any college student seriously jealous as they eat their dining hall food. From bagels to sushi, burgers and ice cream this account covers all the bases.
Everything Bagels
If you love bagels as much as I do everything bagels is the holy grail of food instagrams.

Food 52
Food 52 is a “social-media “ hub website for people to share their favorite recipes. It is also a place to exchange ideas on topics such as eating locally and sustainability. Their instagram will have you drooling in minutes, with an upside: all of the recipes are available online so you can make these meals yourself, or continue to stare at the instagram, that works too.
Smitten Kitchen
One of my favorite food blogs out there is smitten kitchen. Blogger Deb Perelman tries out all sorts of delicious recipes all out of her tiny New York City apartment. Everything always looks delicious. Her instagram is filled with a range of beautiful pictures of foods she makes, from baked breads to salads and pasta. I write this all while staring at a picture of a perfect chocolate babka, this account certainly does not disappoint.
Dominique Ansel
By now if you haven’t heard of the cronut or the cookie shot you have to be living under a rock. The creator of this heavenly treat Dominique Ansel and his namesake bakery create all sorts of innovative sweet and savory options. While Ansel did release the recipe for the cronut, lets just say you are probably better off leaving it to the professionals, or just scrolling through his pictures of all the delicious foods he cooks and eats.
Jamie Oliver
Jamie Oliver is a famous chef and strong advocate of healthy eating with locally-sourced food. His instagram is full of dishes that he cooks and updates almost daily. The bright vivid colors of the food and innovative combinations would make anyone hungry. This account is sure to brighten your feed.

Sam Linsell is a food stylist, photographer and cook who started the blog drizzleanddip and has forayed into instagram. This combination of cook, photographer and stylist seems to be the perfect trifecta as far as accounts go. The pictures feature any dish you can imagine as she has over 1200 posts, in a more rustic setting sure to make anyone’s mouth water.
Spoonforkbacon
Spoonforkbacon is another food blog online started by two women Teri and Jenny that cook their own original recipes. Their food is more than your average dishes with recipes such as peach, burrata, and cinnamon basil crostini, pumpkin and manchego beer bread and pumpkin stuffed pretzel French toast. And yes, this food looks even better than it sounds. With food that looks and sounds so good and is updated every day what more could you ask for?
