Food Criticism On The Internet
The internet has slowly become more important in forming opinions about restaurants. The first generation food sites such as Epicurious and Chowhound were created in the mid-1990s.
More recently, a new generation of discussion forums and rating systems have become influential such as Mouthfuls, Yelp, and eGullet, as have some food criticism blogs like GrubGrade, The Impulsive Buy, Foodette Reviews and Robin Goldstein's consumer-oriented website and book series Fearless Critic.
Food criticism on the Internet has also allowed creation of shows with specific audiences, such as the frozen food web show, Freezerburns, hosted by Gregory Ng.
