This phenomenon expresses a playful and colorful aesthetic, blending gastronomy with teenage fashion.

Where does the “Snackpack” meme come from?

The practice involves assembling empty wrappers from chips, cakes, yogurt drinks, and candies to create a portable bag. South Korean high school girls popularized this prank by using adhesive tape to attach long packages, which served as straps. Although the exact origin remains unclear, June 2014 articles report its circulation among South Korean schoolgirls and later Japanese teens. The trend was documented internationally later, notably by Christina Guan in September 2014 after seeing a Foodbeast article. It served primarily as a personalized birthday gift or personal creation.
