Cross-cultural

In Japanese chats, πŸ«‘ (γƒ”γƒΌγƒžγƒ³) usually refers to the green bell pepper β€” a common veggie in home-cooked meals and school lunches. It’s slightly bitter, so it often carries a cute β€œkids hate it but it’s healthy” vibe. Sometimes paired with πŸ† in cooking posts (e.g. summer stir-fry).

Heads-up

πŸ«‘ is safe in nearly all contexts β€” though note that in Japanese, β€œγƒ”γƒΌγƒžγƒ³β€ can subtly imply β€œplain / unexciting” in jokes (like β€œγƒ”γƒΌγƒžγƒ³γΏγŸγ„γͺ性格” = bland personality).
