On November 29, Jack Antonoff and Taylor Swift basically broke the internet to honor the Midnights artist ranking as Spotify’s top globally streamed artist of 2023. The musicians dropped “You’re Losing Me” as a little treat for all of us. In an Instagram story, Antonoff wrote, “you’re losing me is out today. a very special track from the midnights sessions that’s finally st[r]eaming! written and recorded at home on 12/5/21 right after taylor ate these raisins.”
To many Swifties’ surprise and elation, the Bleachers singer shared an adorable picture of Swift eating a small pile of raisins in Antonoff’s Brooklyn apartment kitchen. (In fact, some internet sleuths have even found the exact same pots, pans, mugs, and kettle shown in this photo in case you’re looking for some great kitchen finds!) While this sparked many theories about who the song is about and what the specific release means, many fans were also bewildered at this being one of Swift’s snacks of choice. So, of course, Swifties took to Twitter and TikTok to make hysterical Taylor Swift raisin memes. Here are just a *handful* of ones that made us say IJBOL.
The girls who get it, get it
Sometimes you just have to be a little feral for dried fruit, I get it.
Raisins make lyrics happen
The snack that led to one of the most devastating lyrics of all time. What little icons.
Everything is an Easter egg…
We’re decoding the 2021 raisins to see what’s in store for 2024. It’s like tarot for trail mix lovers.
We all handle wine differently
Big agree with this Twitter user. Give me a glass or two of Malbec, and I will need Oreos to pair.
We learned a new food fact
She also likes “seemingly ranch,” so 2023 has just been the year of learning about T.Swift food habits.
The raisin slander commenced
Sure, raisins might not be your first choice of snack, but there’s a lot of raisin hate on the TL. Your friends who eat Raisin Bran daily are watching.
History in the making
Of course she made history! She ate foods with fiber and plentiful antioxidants that also promote gut health.
“Give me a raisin…”
Someone get her a box of Sun-Maid, STAT!
No popcorn necessary
I bet her candy of choice for Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé was Raisinets.
New merch hopefully
And you can eat them out of your Eras Tour buckets and cups.
