Great question. I definitely consider myself one although I think people's definition of it differ. This bit from Wiki defines it to me:
"foodies differ from gourmets ...foodies are amateurs who simply love food for consumption, study, preparation, and news."
I also like this site's definition as "someone who has an ardent or refined interest in food."
Nothing snobbish about it because you don't have to be wealthy to be a foodie.

According to those definitions above, I'm pretty sure I'm a foodie. I love cooking, love food, love research, love the history and origins, trends, experimenting with different combinations, learning. It's all part of the package I guess, it's my life, and it used to be my career. But I still have the passion.

Me too. I have a collection of over 500 cookery books, plus cookery magazines and loads of recipes collected from the www. I belong to my university's intranet foodie group. Many of my friends have suggested I should open a restaurant. I also love making preserves and liqueurs and give these as gifts.
