Hell yes, I photograph my food! I often get laughed at for it, but I find that I really enjoy it. Most of the time when I am laughed at, it is those that go to work, pay bills, and don't step outside their box. In short, they have no interest in anything outside of that box. Not that there is anything wrong with any of that. I personally like to enjoy the things around me. I like to stop and smell the roses. When it comes to food, there is so much out there and the presentation along with the colors are very eye catching. I like to capture the effort that goes into the food before I eat it.
I have even been yelled at for taking photos...That's right, yelled at. I have been told that I am too busy with the camera to enjoy what is right in front of me. I don't follow this; I take photos so I can enjoy what is around me. This is how I experience the world. Taking photos is such a part of who I am that I see it as an extension of the beauty around me. I like to look back at my memories in the photos and relive the experience. I don't think anything can hold a memory better than a photograph.
So yes, photograph your food. There is nothing wrong with it. Enjoy your experience anyway you want to.
