Top Reusable Audio Tracks for Food and Recipes on Instagram

This week, ContentScout sampled 70 public posts in the Food and Recipes niche on Instagram. Across the sample, posts have an average of 190,950 views and a median engagement rate of 5.57%. Average views fell from 333,562 in the previous run. Here are the reusable audio tracks used in the posts traveling the furthest.

ContentScout's own analysis: we sample real public posts matching food & recipes search terms on Instagram and score them by how much engagement they're getting relative to how recently they were posted. Only reusable tracks are listed: each creator's own original audio is left out, since nobody else can use it. They're ranked by how many posts in the sample use them, and a repeating audio is a signal, not a guarantee.

questions

Questions, answered.

How is this data measured?+

ContentScout reads social data from public posts. This page ranks reusable audio tracks by ContentScout's own scoring system based on the sample of posts collected this week.

Does this list cover every sound in the niche?+

No. This list covers reusable audio tracks only. Creators' own original audio is excluded because other creators cannot use it.

Are all the tracks on this list equally popular?+

No. A track used by several posts in the sample is a stronger signal than one used by a single post.

Will using one of these sounds guarantee high reach?+

No. A sound appearing here is a signal, not a guarantee of reach.

Which track has the highest average views in the sample?+

Dekha Ek Khwab - Flute Cover by Goutam Bhawsar leads the sample with 3,248,392 average views across 1 post used by @old_cooking6.
