New Year's Eve is a time for reflection, for partying and for over-indulging in bubbly cocktails and celebratory shots.
That means, of course, that New Year's Day is the time for multiple painkillers, darkened rooms and staying in pajamas all day.
If you're prone to New Year's hangovers, prep your phone by following these Instagram accounts ahead of time. They are guaranteed to banish your nausea and have you reaching for your nearest frying pan — or takeout menu — in no time.

The mind behind The Food Lab makes for an Instagram account that is part cooking technique, part guilty pleasure and entirely droolworthy.

A seemingly endless feed of cream-cheesed bagels, gooey egg yolks and a technicolor array of sprinkled ice cream scoops.

This feed doesn't just capture shots of delicious food; it somehow manages to convey mood and atmosphere with a single shot of the perfect taco or a beautifully plated gourmet meal.

All burgers, all the time. Just the beefy, cheesy encouragement you need to get up off that couch you have been laying on since 4 a.m.

As the handle promises, prepare to unbutton your pants if you follow in this feed's footsteps. The pictures run the gamut from caviar and truffles to french fries and pizza.

This Singapore-based (male, despite the handle) blogger has some of the most aspirational photos on the 'gram. It might help snap you out of that half-eaten bag of cheese puffs.

The pristine photos of primarily (though not entirely) sushi and other Japanese delicacies prove that food photography doesn't have to be complicated to be utterly mouthwatering.

She might make her paycheck from the catwalk and glossy magazines, but Chrissy's heart belongs to her kitchen. Cheesy pasta, homemade Greek feasts and classic Thai dishes make her Instagram sizzle.

Constant surveillance of this handle may warrant an emergency run to your local drugstore for a can of frosting and a spoon. Consider yourself warned.

Artistic photography of beautiful food that you will likely never make at home.

Vegan food gets a foulmouthed makeover. You never knew quinoa was such a badass, did you?
