About

The J. Cole Meal refers to a series of memes imagining what a collaboration between rapper J. Cole and McDonald's might look like, with internet users joking that the "J. Cole Meal" would consist of a plain burger with no toppings or condiments and a glass of water. This is sometimes accompanied by the phrase, "So humble" as a dig at the rapper's perceived socially conscious and humble persona.
