The 'Recorded with a Potato' meme is a staple of internet culture used to mock videos or photos of exceptionally poor quality. The phrase implies that the recording device was so primitive or low-tech that it might as well have been a root vegetable. Emerging in the early 2000s on sites like YouTube and 4chan, it became the go-to insult for UFO sightings, Bigfoot footage, or any video where the resolution is so low that the subject is barely recognizable. Over time, it has evolved into various visual templates, often featuring a potato with a camera lens attached or simply a heavily pixelated image, serving as a humorous critique of modern technology failing to capture clear imagery.
