Even food plays an important role. Representatives of the Tumblr subculture are divided either into those who like to pamper themselves with various fast food, or into those who are an ardent supporter of proper nutrition. The latter can often be found with a "my bottle" filled with some healthy drink - smoothie, juice, protein shake. This was used by many entrepreneurs who began to specialize in the sale of various things that have already become familiar attributes of this style.
