A new food trend is rocking Instagram right now and we just can't stop looking at it! Say hello to mermaid toast.
Started by a food stylist named Adeline Waugh, the trend is seriously going to brighten up your mornings. Who doesn't like good looking food after all? "My goal is to take healthy food and make it fun and exciting, brightening it up with a few (or many) pops of color,” Waugh told Vogue. All she does is mixes cream cheese with spirulina powder for blue and chlorophyll drops for green - and voila! A delicious and good-looking breakfast. You can also make different colored toast by using beet juice for pink, turmeric root for yellow and orange or freeze-dried blueberry powder for purple. You can find the mermaid toast recipe on Adeline Waugh's blog.

I love all the styles she came up with. The scales, the folds of color, the zig-zags

Yeah flavor wise it's probably not very good. Plain at best.

He isn't very creative with colours is he? The fourth moldy white/blue/green-ish toast. Yuck! I prefer cheese or chicken or jam (without mold!) on toast

If I remember correctly from the buzzfeed article, the lady who makes these uses some kind of nut cream (almond, I think) and vegetable and fruit powders for the coloring, so she's probably a bit limited. Agreed though; way overboard.

This isn't mold guys if you read the text it's cream cheese with food coloring. Before jumping the gun and being disrespectful read what it is.

By the time you’re done decorating the toast will disintegrate but “it’s so pretty!”

It all comes out brown at the end of the day, but ... to each their own :)

Blue and other colors like blue are the colors that make you feel like not eating ... That's why in most restaurants red and other warmer shades are used for the plates and stuff so that you feel good even before eating ...( But I think this will be good for people going on a diet as they won't feel like eating much seeing all the blue 😂)

Please, the internet doesn't "love" this, it's just one more ridiculous thing in a long, long line of serial crushes.

Cream cheese isnt a "healthy food". I am more annoyed that she is trying to pass this off as that than if she had just said "i wanted to make pretty food for my kids". ps i do think it looks pretty, and i dont know how to feel about that!

It's some vegan lady who makes them... it's like an almond or cashew cream base mixed with vegetable and fruit powders. It's actually pretty healthy but honestly, who has the time?

Someone made a good comment about this being similar to decorating Easter eggs....and whether it's that or 'just toast' or paintings it's art and making someone happy - even if that someone is the person creating it. Maybe it's really time consuming, but leaving negative comments is time consuming too..... it amazes me how many people take the time to write something negative instead of just clicking next and moving on!

Of course Instagram would be in love, lets just wait till Pinterest discovers in too.
