The 'Free Candy Van' meme is a long-standing piece of internet folklore and dark humor centered around a plain white cargo van, often featuring the words 'Free Candy' crudely painted on its side. It plays on the classic urban legend and safety warning given to children about predatory behavior, transforming a serious cautionary tale into a satirical commentary on things that seem 'too good to be true.' In digital culture, it is frequently used to mock suspicious-looking deals, clickbait, or as a reaction to something obviously sketchy. Over the years, the template has evolved to include variations like 'Free Wi-Fi' or 'Free V-Bucks' to stay relevant with younger audiences and modern internet tropes.
