gourmands or epicureans.

to me, being a foodie is more about appreciation for food and food experiences as a hobby, more than just cooking or eating out to sate hunger or for convenience.

think about foodies and gourmet food trucks, for example - those aren't high end. some people actually make a focus finding inexpensive yet unique food.
