About Ingestion Digest

This is a journal of one man’s daily ingestion.

We all have vices.  Mine is food.  I have always loved food.  GOOD food, shitty food, it didn’t really matter.

In the summer of 2009 I came to the revelation that even though I had a near-intimate relationship with food, I never really looked at it. Like a spouse you never look in the eyes any more. 

This project started September 1st, 2009 with the goal of photographing everything I ate.  EVERYTHING.  I wanted to look my food in the face.  It wasn’t to count calories, it wasn’t to change my diet, though at times this page helped me re-evaluate my eating tendencies.

I have learned a lot about photography and a lot more about myself since starting this.  I also learned a lot about how others perceive food.  Some of you are addicted my meal from Panda Express in November of 2009, others of you hate it and are excited that in Mid-April 2010 I began experimenting with a pescaterian diet while it simultaneously alienated a large portion of my viewership.

P.S. - For those photography buffs out there, I shoot most of the photos with a Canon EOS XS with the kit 18-55 Lens and mostly in Aperture priority mode. Photos after April 2010 will primarily be shot with a 50mm f/2.5 macro lens.
