In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “246 cheese varieties” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 4978 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3508 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “246 cheese varieties” meme mean?

This phrase is used to mock an endless list or an oddly specific figure pushed to absurd lengths, the way someone might cite an impossible-to-check number just to impress. It fits when someone unloads a disproportionate amount of detail on a specific topic, here cheese, with exaggerated enthusiasm that becomes funny through sheer excess.

Where does the “246 cheese varieties” meme come from?

The phrase comes from a YouTube video titled “246 variétés de FROMAGE!” (“246 cheese varieties!”), posted by the French channel Hibou San, which lists a large number of cheese varieties back to back in a theatrical, exaggerated tone. This format of an exhaustive, absurd list that pushes a specific number to a ridiculous extreme belongs to a genre of comedy videos built on extreme enumeration. The title and its oddly precise number later spread beyond the original video as a ready-made line to mock an endless rundown on a specific subject.
