Before plunging headfirst in the world of campus food I feel the need to explain myself. In an age where the Food Network had become appointment television and supermarkets now stock many ingredients that up until a few years ago were rarely found outside of specialty markets, everyone is a “foodie.” As someone who has been cooking professionally for upwards of five years I have always resented this label. It’s a name for someone that likes to bitch about food, but can’t cook.

Meme of the Week chronicles one meme per week that I, the almost too-literate author of this column, believe truly stood prouder and abover than its meme-peers. If you do not know what a meme is, and are now frustrated that you’ve seen the word used literally one thousand times in the post already, then I pity you from my high and ivory tower of internet knowledge. I would drop a rock on your head from this great height to put you out of your misery, but there are no rocks up here and I don’t feel like climbing all the way down to your level just to find one.
