We live in an age when we upload everything we do to social media, and our meals are no exception.

The perfect angle doesn't hurt, either.

As we make our way into the new year, the food porn competition is really heating up.

From dishes topped with melty mac and cheese and desserts decked out in Nutella to badass bacon-wrapped everything, this food porn is pretty much guaranteed to make you break all of your New Year's diet resolutions.
