A telephone used to be shaped like a banana, but the shape of a phone has changed. What food could a phone be now? This was posted on X/Twitter by tate on August 25, 2020, and it received over 66,000 likes:

The banana was once a perfect
representation of phone shape. You
could hold it up like “hello hello?” &
make your friends die laughing, but these times are behind us. Phones are just rectangles now so I think we need a replacement food. I hereby nominate the ice cream sandwich!
