The social media frenzy has definitely impacted the way we experience things in life.

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'.
