So we all know about food porn, but what about food as fashion porn? Italian photographer Fulvio Bonavia has repurposed food into handbags and other accessories in his book, A Matter of Taste. These fun and innovative photos really stretch the limit of what is food and what is fashion, from a sardine belt to a linguine and silver necklace.

More photos after the jump.
