Welcome to a little slice of culinary heaven where we share photos of our favorite dishes, from savory succulent sausages to delicious and delectable desserts. Made it yourself? We'd love to hear your recipe!

Rules:

1. BE KIND

Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

Thanks! I really didn't want it to be an aKsUAlLy type post. I just thought it was an interesting point to pick up on.

Also, while OPs spelling of the word doesn't make sense to me based on what I've read, it does make sense phonetically. I've heard consome pronounced similarly to "consume".

That sort of lazy acceptance, no offense intended, is how we get "decimated" mistaken for "devastated", and each have their own powerful, useful meanings. To whit, "consommé" comes from Latin consummare ‘make complete’ and is not as simple as merely consuming — as anyone who's made it can tell you. 🤗
