Background
In order to engage college students who take on Cheesecake Factory and its massive menu, I created a meme that embodies the struggle of choosing between 250 menu items. To accurately depict this conflict, I used the “inner panic attack” meme frame which features The Office character Jim Halpert grabbing his head in angst. Above the meme frame includes the copy ” *looks at cheesecake factory menu:” to communicate the overwhelming trigger event of sifting through the thick menu booklet.
