A fat kid pretentious enough to think up a special word to describe their desperate longing for anything to shove down their face. They'll often claim to be "food enthusiasts" or to have "refined tastes," but they're usually lying.
"I got tired of telling people I had a 'glandular problem,' so I decided to start calling myself a foodie instead. It frees me of those negative connotations and leaves me to be become as lardy as I see fit."

Get the Foodie mug.
A person who thinks they know everything about food and the origins of food. Usually these people have zero experience actually cooking and also dealing with the stress of a real restaurant environment. They'll create blogs for themselves to create a sense of self worth, often this isn't there real job. These are the same types that hang out at pretentious expensive coffee lounges. They totally destroy a layman's love of food and makes the average person feel like crap for going out to eat.
