What is a Foodie?
Hearing : Listening :: Eating : Savoring
As the analogy goes, listening is hearing as well as processing the meaning behind what is said. By the same token, savoring is embracing the total experience of eating by utilizing all the senses and past culinary experiences.

Foodies are those who savor the whole experience of eating, enjoying the present and connecting to previous memories with regards to food so as to truly appreciate the deliberate efforts made by the chef. Foodies love to dine out as well as shop and prepare their own culinary creations.
