The 'Cornplate' (or Corn Plate) meme is a prime example of modern internet surrealism and ironic humor. Often originating as a play on the word 'Template' itself, the meme features a literal plate of corn used as a backdrop for absurd observations or non-sequitur jokes. It gained traction in shitposting circles where the goal is to subvert traditional meme formats by using mundane, high-contrast imagery of food. The Cornplate is frequently used to mock standard meme tropes or simply to provide a wholesome yet bizarre visual for internal community jokes, proving that in the world of memes, even a simple side dish can become a viral sensation.
