Rather than posting a picture of what it is that you're eating, this Twitter food contraption from Stupid Hackathon lets the food do all the talking for you.
The 'Tweet Your Food' machine involves a sensor that gets plugged directly into a food item and sends out a tweet with every bite that you take. This includes messages like "Pizza bite number 1," "Pizza bite number 2," and so on, until the slice of pizza has been eaten up. Although the device is really more about making a statement about foodie culture and social media rather than having a practical application in the real world at this stage, this is a clever way to remark on obsessions with food, over-sharing and giving a voice to inanimate objects on social media.
