Meme surfaces of dogs that look like objects

PORTLAND, Ore. — A Twitter user in Portland, Oregon, took an observation about dog breeds and turned it into a meme.

The user, Karen Zack, whose username is @teenybiscuit on Twitter, first compared ducklings to plaintain in November.

From there, Zack, who NPR reported works in media production, began comparing dog breeds to foods they appear to resemble.

Some are more obvious, like a Hungarian sheepdog and a mop.

But most of the time, Zack compares the dogs to baked goods, like muffins and bagels.

The idea to compare dogs to their food counterparts may have started when Zack observed how much Labradoodles look like fried chicken.

Inspiration may have come from a widely-circulated Tumblr post that makes the same observation.

BuzzFeed reported that others have also taken on the meme, comparing Pomeranians to pancakes and dalmatians to ice cream.
