Goldfish are the cheddar crackers sold by Pepperidge Farm, shaped like small fish with a smile printed on one side. Their television advertising turned the line the snack that smiles back into one of the most recognisable food slogans in the United States. As short commercial clips began circulating on meme pages and soundboards, the tagline was lifted out of the ads and reused on its own. It stays popular because the phrase instantly identifies the snack, even without showing the packet.
