I have a few guidelines for Instagram:
1) Everyone is allotted one post a day. I don’t care if you’re in Rome or at a premiere in L.A. You only get that one post, so choose wisely.
2) Chill with the hash tags. If it’s a mirror selfie, I don’t think #toiletpaper gets you more likes.
Most important: 3) If you must post your food make sure it looks good. Your Kraft mac and cheese isn’t worthy. Sorry.
There’s a time and place to post your gourmet sandwiches and your stoner creations. Instagram, however, is not that platform.

“But if I didn’t take a picture, did I really even eat it?” I’m not evil. I wouldn’t crush your dreams as a food photographer without a solution. Welcome to Bisqit.com: “Share your love for food with your friends and with others around the world.” I thought I stumbled upon the fountain of youth when this gem came up on Google. Misspelling words can be rewarding.
Bisqit was created in 2013 to allow people to connect through food and recipe sharing. So, it’s not a newborn baby of a company but it isn’t exactly in the headlines, yet.
Yes, this is a new platform to add to your very busy social life. In between your tweets, your Instagram photos, your Facebook updates, Tumblr posts or your Vines, (you get it) you can find time to post your meals on Bisqit, too.
It was just a matter of time until someone realized the trend of food with filters would sell. The New Jersey 16-year-old creator of Bisqit, Catherine Zhu, is a genius.
It is everything a food lover can dream of. It’s basically an Instagram and Pinterest mash up devoted entirely to food.

The way it works is you have a personal profile where you post your proud dishes and then you categorize your meal so people can browse a certain recipe. It’s like hashtags create online folders for the same dish. If they like what they see, they’ll follow you. Pretty simple stuff.
Hell, this could be better than all your other social media sites. You could make friends through lasagna. Meet your husband/wife over an egg frittata recipe. Get laid on the mutual like of blueberry muffins. The possibilities are endless when you mix screen-obsessed millenials with food.
The biggest plus is that Bisqit reduces the food narcissist posts on your Instagram feed. There’s nothing worse than someone clogging up your feed with shitty grilled cheese and a hack job of a casserole.

Bisqit exists so you can get feedback and ideas for your post-worthy creations. It exists to improve your cooking and possibly your life. Your love for all things digestible can make you a more sociable person. And we’re all for improving our social skills.
