Discovering New Food Blogs
The more you look, the more you find!
Since FeedReel’s launch a month ago, our list of food and drink blogs in the UK has grown from just over a hundred to over 200.
We now list, search and scan 129 132 general food blogs (from good simple home cooking to the completely eclectic), 10 blogs about eating out, 12 farming blogs, 16 wine blogs, 5 beer blogs and one lonely cider blog. (And several apparently inactive, but still online, blogs.)
