A shift in social media strategy involves posting low-quality photos of meals, such as English bangers and eggs, to increase follower counts on Twitter. The tactic is based on observations that food-related content drives higher engagement and helps users surpass plateaus in follower numbers. Criticism is directed at the aesthetic quality of the food and the use of ketchup on roasted potatoes.

A clip of Anthony Bourdain in a Paris restaurant shows him encouraging the practice of taking photos of food for social media. The hosts lament this trend, suggesting that the obsession with documenting experiences for Twitter and Instagram detracts from the actual enjoyment of the meal.
