2023 Reddit Recap unveils most popular food & drink trends
Abstract
As a combined category food and drink posts on Reddit are up by 26% for views and up 55% for engagement year-on-year.

Dishes of r/foodporn still have the power to make ‘mouths water’, but it seems the tastes have turned. Forget picture-perfect meals,  r/stupidfood reigns supreme in 2023 as the number one most-viewed community in the category with a 58% increase in views YoY.

r/TipOfMyFork, is a community that helps other redditors find the name of that ingredient of their favourite dish or snack, saw a 92% increase YoY, from #107 most viewed to #12 most viewed for 2023. In the world of drinks, r/whiskey is up 25% YoY for views, with r/wine on the rise, up 30% for the year.

r/WeWantPlates is a movement against the gastronomic theatrics of serving food on wood or roof tiles, lamb chops on baroque mirrors, sushi on trilby hats, sliders in a bucket, or fish & chips in the frying pan basket. A community about championing the return to good old-fashioned plates.
