Boromir Would Have Brought Us Even More Lord of the Rings Memes

You ever notice how much Tolkien uses food to define his characters? Like, not in a "here's what's on the menu" kind of way - but in a "this is who they are" kind of way. Hobbits? They eat six meals a day, minimum. Why? Because they're grounded, homey, comforting little beings who will always offer you tea, toast, and some sort of pie. Elves? They nibble a single crumb of lembas bread and float off like food is a suggestion. That's not just worldbuilding - that's character psychology with carbs.

And then there's Denethor, who rage-eats an entire medieval charcuterie board while sending his son to die. The juice dripping down his chin says more than any monologue ever could. Compare that to Aragorn politely forcing down Éowyn's cursed stew just to avoid hurting her feelings - peak king behavior. And Sam? Sweet, beautiful Sam? The man carried a frying pan into Mordor. Not a sword. A frying. Pan. Because Frodo was not going to eat raw Gollum sushi on his watch.

These 30 memes get it. They celebrate the weird, cozy, sometimes horrifying ways food shows us who these characters really are. Bring snacks. You're gonna be hungry by the end.
