Our Top 25 Instagrams Of 2013
The Food Republic editors have been playing competitive Instagram with @foodrepublic since the app's inception. While many claim it's not a contest, we maintain that it is. Oh hey, you had bone marrow last night? Boom, fried oyster covered with caviar. We've also made extensive use of the #brunch hashtag. Everyone wins, really, and we'd like to share a few of our favorite photos of the year. First one to 1,100 Likes gets a prize.
