“Flogging” – or food-blogging – is getting big in Asia.
In fact, a lot of people are turning to food blogs when it comes to news about new foods and small eateries.
These food blogs aka “flogs” may be common around the world but they are especially famous in Asia because it is a region full of diners that are very passionate about eating; it is a region where food has immense cultural importance.
Flogs have also become income-generating for a lot of people. Some floggers sell ads, including those that are not related to food. And then there are those that accept payment to say good things about particular establishments (and also bad things if they refuse to pay).
But because of these dubious bloggers, some people go to other more direct social media avenues like Twitter, Instagram and Facebook for anything food-related like reviews and recommendations, according to Inquirer.
There is no denying how food blogs and social media have revolutionized the food scene. For example, people used to pray before meals. Now, people whip up their phones or cameras and take a photo before they eat.
