And while it's easy to be skeptical of those who've sold out for the free food and big-ticket brand partnerships, it's unfair to paint the entire group with such a brush. Our favorite Instagrammers are bona fide food experts—ranging from restaurant-savvy diners to cookbook authors and, of course, finalists from our annual Blog Awards—who may eschew the latest fads and viral dishes, but embody SAVEUR's food-obsessive tendencies and #eattheworld philosophy.

We've written about our favorite coffee and cocktail Instagrams, and we're sure you're already following @SAVEURMAG. But if you're still craving more mouthwatering photos, here are our picks for the 20 best food Instagrams of 2016.

In 1985, this Michigan native jetted off to China with a camera and hasn't stopped photographing since then. Now splitting his time between Southeast Asia and Turkey as a fulltime photographer—his work as appeared in the New York Times, Lucky Peach, and SAVEUR—Hagerman documents culture through the lens of food and travel. What we love most is his ability to not only capture beautiful photographs, but also share the stories, and people, behind them.

An American living in Toronto, this pastry goddess can be counted on for baked innovations ranging from matcha-and-black sesame sourdough knots to cranberry-sage pie with a herringbone lattice.

As their Instagram handle suggests, Portland-based recipe developers and photographers Natalie and Holly are "reinventing 'proper' for the modern homemaker."

Singapore is, by now, a universally recognized destination for food. Documenting it all is this photographer, stylist, and barista who, being unable to attend culinary school, taught himself how to cook watching videos and cooking shows online. An avid traveller in the region, he also snaps the must-visit spots across Asia, from Taiwan to Tokyo.

Readers' choice winner of the "Best Food Instagram" at SAVEUR's 2016 Blog Awards, modern-day dad and husband Nick expresses himself through home-cooked meals and food-loving adventures. Set in sunny LA, this playful feed is full of carb-y goodness (at least half of the featured foods come between two pieces of bread), with a few shots here and there of his adorable sons.

Does your wardrobe consist of black, white, and maybe one color? Is your Instagram a grid of objects on white backgrounds? If so, you may get a kick out of this minimalist, bowl-centric approach to food photography. In this feed, Boston-based Lucia Lee reminds us that there’s nothing wrong with keeping things simple and clean.

CNN producer by day, food blogger by night, this modern New Yorker can be relied on for all the iconic shots of split bagel sandwiches, pizza slices, and cocktails—all served with motivational quotes to get you through the day.

For a very different take on a food Instagram, follow this Italy-based feed that shows off primo kitchen ingredients with a catch: they’re all “floating” in the air.

Spending time in New York City and Seoul, Kim captures all the food-Instagram requisites—the perfectly poured cappuccino, a neatly smeared avocado toast, and swirly ice cream cones—all without sacrificing quality. And when it comes to the tried-and-true overhead table shot, no one does it better.

A finalist in SAVEUR's 2013 Blog Awards, this food blogger, and now New York Times bestselling author is still one of our favorites for simple, health conscious recipes. For those who are gluten-free or adhere to a paleo diet, this is your new go-to.

Another one of our Blog Awards Instagram finalists, this Seattle-based food photographer who sees food as an opportunity to do something creative, not just tasty. Our favorite part of her feed? What Wright calls "food gradients."

We'll admit: this isn't so much a food blog as much as a performance art project that, by the creator's own words, nobody asked for. Still, there's something visceral and strangely captivating about this mystery woman smashing her face into loaves of breads, pastries, and other starchy foods (she was the Editors' Choice winner of our Blog Awards 2016 Best Food Instagram). Does she hate carbs or love them? Is there a deeper meaning to the bread-smashing? We don't have the answers, but we're watching anyways.
