Today, we’re featuring some of the most hilarious memes featured on the ‘Famished Club’ Instagram account. They’re witty, some of them hit a bit close to home (cleaning up after cooking, ew), and they’re making us hungrier than we care to admit. Scroll down to check them out, and remember to upvote your faves! Bored Panda got in touch with the team behind the popular ‘Famished’ brand, and they were kind enough to answer our questions. Scroll down for our interview with chief executive officer Abhi Chatterjee and chief marketing officer Moses Albo. More info: Instagram | Facebook | Famished.io “Now, Famished leverages tech to help small restaurants engage directly with their diners, ditching hefty third-party fees. After all, we feast with our eyes first—Famished is your go-to for culinary inspiration and your next food adventure.” Meanwhile, CMO Albo had this to say about the inspiration behind the meme-focused Instagram account. “We love food and we love memes, the decision was only natural. Memes are the voice of our generation, it’s how we communicate. What better way to merge both than creating a place on Instagram for us to laugh about food.” Albo told Bored Pand that “only the dankest memes survive,” adding that the internet users following ‘Famished’ are also big fans of ‘deep fried’ and vegan memes. In the meantime, if things don’t turn out ‘perfect,’ we really shouldn’t worry. “Every meal is a chance to learn something new or an opportunity to make fun of yourself! Learn the basics and remember, cooking is more about having fun and experimenting. So, turn up your favorite songs and enjoy the process,” Chatterjee said. Luck plays a massive part in any content going viral on the internet. Though experience with content creation can help you notice trends and shifts in popular culture, it’s still impossible to know for sure which pics your audience will resonate with and which ones will get ignored. With that in mind, the more consistent you are with your posting schedule, the better your chances of slowly building up a following. However, there are some things that you can do to improve the quality of your memes to up your chances of getting them noticed in the vast expanse of the World Wide Web. Something that all content creators should focus on is visual clarity and fluency. Memes tend to work best when they’re punchy and compact. So, you want to use high-quality images and easily readable fonts. On the flip side, if you go for low-quality (‘noisy’) pics and overly complex fonts, your audience might simply skip past your meme because it takes too much effort to understand what’s going on. The shorter the text, the clearer the message—the better. At the core of memes lies the idea of shorthand communication. Longform content is generally antithetical to meme culture. What formats are the most popular right now? What memes do internet users tend to react the most positively to? In short, try to do things at least as well as your competitors… but embracing innovation and improving on what they do is a great way to carve out a niche for yourself. Food, work problems, parenting challenges, relationships, money worries, chronic exhaustion, nostalgia, and rewarding ourselves with little snacks—these are all core parts of the human experience. They won’t be going anywhere, even as the world around us changes. So, even if we’re still laughing at food memes 20 years from now, they’re likely to look very different. Who knows, we might all be chuckling at how our fully sentient AI-powered personal chefs refuse to cook anything that’s bad for our health, so we have to hide our cheeky snacks from them!
