Asado, grill and also Milanese.
There are three foods that identify us as Argentines.
And they are also the ones that are “posted” the most on Instagram, to the point that national embers occupy the first two places in the
top 3 of the most
Instagrammed
dishes in South America
.
The thing would be like this. Not what is eaten the most, but
what is most shared on social networks
. Or, in these times when everything is posted, it could have a reverse reading. The
foodies
, this category of food lovers, have incorporated the post on Instagram as an
essential witness to the experience
. There is no way out to eat out that does not end with the photo or the video (or the Reels, now, which is what makes the algorithm dance).
An original international ranking now measured what people post the most.
It was put together by Thuisbezorgd.nl, a platform in the Netherlands that allows you to buy food.
Using the TasteAtlas database, he listed the most popular food dishes in each country and also put together another list, of the hashtags and translations for each of those dishes.
They took into account
12,000 meals from more than 180 countries
.
Thus, by crossing data with Instagram, they were able to determine
which are the dishes that the most people photograph and post in the world
.
Thuisbezorgd says it is the largest study of its kind carried out so far.
Pizza is the most Instagrammed dish in the world.
"The phenomenon of photographing a plate before eating it for posting on social media has become increasingly popular over the years. The #food hashtag has appeared in more than 450 million Instagram posts to date. says that taking pictures of their food improves the flavor, brings people together and promotes restaurants. This made us wonder which dishes are the most shared online and where they come from, "they explained from the app.
The most posted in the world
What is the most Instagrammed dish in the world?
The popular pizza, which had more than 86 million hashtags.
She won very, very comfortably, because the next dish on the list, sushi, has almost half, 45 million.
"The versatile nature of pizza toppings means that each culture can bring its own twist to the classic," the study authors noted.
The podium is completed by the hamburger, with 33 million.
Mexican tacos, which many analysts believe will be the next sushi due to the rapid pace at which they are globalizing, rank fourth with 15 million.
The ramen, another popular dish in the networks.

In the global ranking,
Asian food sweeps
.
The also increasingly popular ramen, that colorful soup with egg and noodles, added almost 12 million mentions.
In sixth place is Japanese-style cooked meat, yakiniku (8 million) and the top 10 is completed by sashimi (7 million), the thin slices of raw fish that are commonly served here as part of sushi trays;
soba (Japanese buckwheat noodles, 4.3 million), fried chicken (3.5 million), and tteokbokki (a Korean street food made from rice pasta, 3.4 million).
His majesty the roast
Our beloved roast comes very well in this ranking.
He did not get into the top 10, but he did get a “diploma”,
ranking 15th with 3 million mentions and 16th for the grid with 2.9 million
.
Another very expensive food for Argentines, but which is nevertheless global because it has versions all over the planet, are empanadas, which were 18th with 2.7 million.
But here, from what has been said, we cannot take full credit.
The Argentine grill, first among the South American dishes that are most posted on Instagram.

Like the top 50 Best restaurants, the Instagram list also has a regional version.
And when looking at the foods of South America, the barbecue ranks first among the most posted, followed by the grill.
The authors of the ranking make a reservation and explain that the first term refers to "meat grilled to perfection
over low heat
", while the grill "is a more versatile version of barbecue" and that "this type of Argentine barbecue It includes not only meat but also ingredients such as vegetables and fish prepared on a metal grill. "
Another very popular dish among Argentines,
milanesa
, ranks 8th, with 472,000 mentions.
