Resumen

La fotografía de comida que resulta atractiva, se antoja a los espectadores y que, con frecuencia, recibe la etiqueta despectiva de “food porn”, es uno de los contenidos más populares de los medios digitales contemporáneos. En este artículo, argumento que esta etiqueta oculta diferentes modos en los que un espectador puede enfrentarse a ella. En particular, el food porn nos permite participar en proyectos de imaginación gustativa intermodal de un tipo específico y, la capacidad de las imágenes de provocar dichos proyectos imaginativos puede contribuir al mérito artístico.
