SA content creator: "It's absolutely unnecessary to take pics of your food"
How do you feel about that?
The social media frenzy has definitely impacted the way we experience things in life.
From food to activities, if you don't see someone recording their experience or photographing something, then it feels almost unnatural.
We can understand that photographing things leaves people with tangible proof of their experience, it allows them to look back on that moment and reminisce.
But popular South African content creator, Wade Cloete, recently made a short, but sweet video regarding food snaps.
He boldly says in the video that taking photos of your food is "unnecessary". His 'matter-of-fact' demeanour does remind us that keeping our experiences (even our foodie ones) real is slowly depleting in society.
Ironically, the thing that is said to help us be 'social' actually ostracises us from actually being 'social'.
We do appreciate his humour but we have to admit that brings up a deeper issue in society about social media.
