Nowadays, wherever we go, we can’t leave our mobile phones behind. When we eat out, once a dish comes, we’d take out our phones and click, rather than lift our chopsticks first. Later, we post the photos onto Weibo or WeChat, waiting to be “liked”. Then we check our phones from time to time during the meal.
A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not that good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this, some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. It turned out that the more photos they took, the less delicious the food seemed to them.
There are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one is unable to control himself and check his phone many times, which makes others uncomfortable.
