The former 'The Office' star reassured fans that she did in fact eat despite the photos not showing any actual consumption.

Actor-writer-producer Mindy Kaling responded to critics of her latest Instagram food post.

Last week, Kaling shared photos of pizza, wings, and pasta from Pijja Palace, an Indian-fusion sports bar in Los Angeles.


She captioned it:

"Swipe through many photos of me with delicious @pijjapalace food to earn one photo of me and @ericaflener."

Many fans commented on the amazing fare.

Others, however, commented instead on the lack of consumption documented by the photos.

She replied:

"I actually think this concern is sweet."

She finished her comment with a heart.
