Un fruit qui commence par la lettre M 😂😂😂😂😂 (Big Jefferson)

In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “MEAT!” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 2988 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3507 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “MEAT!” meme mean?

This format expresses humor through absurdity or deliberate provocation. The user expects a logical list of fruits (mango, melon), but receives 'meat', an animal product. This creates an immediate comedic gap, often used to mark independence from conventional expectations or simply to surprise the interlocutor with an out-of-context and punchy reply.

Where does the “MEAT!” meme come from?

Consulted documentary sources do not allow for the precise identification of the origin of the 'MEAT!' meme. No author name, source video, TV show, or initial publication platform was found in the available references. Searches are limited to generic lists of fruits starting with the letter M, such as mango, mandarin, melon, mulberry, mirabelle, and blueberry. These documents simply confirm that 'meat' does not fit the usual fruit category. It remains impossible to establish whether this association comes from a quote taken out of context, an artistic twist, or a deliberately absurd response created by an anonymous user. The lack of traceability prevents any reliable dating or attribution.

How to use the “MEAT!” meme

  • Answering a trick question by completely ignoring the proposed options.
  • Diverting a serious conversation toward a totally incongruous subject to break the tension.
  • Playing with words by associating two incompatible semantic categories without explanation.

How to get the “MEAT!” card

Every pack holds 5 meme cards, the first 3 of them Common; MEAT! comes out of the Memes FR pack as a common card. The pack odds say what each rarity weighs.

Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 5 MemeCoins.

The reprint of the “MEAT!” card

The “MEAT!” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 4,738). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.

Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.

MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
