Of the 300 million plus Instagram accounts active today, it seems like the bulk of them revolve around one thing: food.

Before I go any further, let me just admit: I don’t get Instagram. I was a photography minor in college when the app blew up, and it was frustrating to see all my hard work learning about composition, shutter speeds, and f/ stops reduced to a simple filter on a smartphone camera.

I decided that instead of sitting on the outskirts and grumbling about these hypothetical kids on my lawn, I would talk to the people behind some popular food Instagram accounts in New York City to see if they could help me understand why this has become such a big part of our culture. Each has a different approach to Instagram, and each taught me a different lesson along the way.

Do you remember going to the library as a kid? Whether you were a total bookworm or your parents had to drag you, kicking and screaming, librarians could be really intimidating sometimes. The old stereotypes of librarians as cold-hearted spinsters shushing people left and right still pops up from time to time, but the reality behind it is quickly dying. Nowadays, librarians, and their unique programming, are the reason why kids want to go to the library in the first place.
