A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Yeah, because it's in water, not oil, it ain't frying. It's boiling.
The pressure at that depth allows the temperature to get way higher than 100°C, so I bet it probably is closer to frying than boiling.
Pressure cooking is still boiling though
The pressure in your pressure cooker is only 15 psi which raises the boiling point of water to about 120°C, well bellow the temperature of a deep fryer at 175°C.
The temperature of undersea vents can easily reach temperatures of over 300°C, which I would argue is more like frying.
Changing the temp doesn’t change the way it’s cooked.
It literally does
I don’t think so. I can bake things in my oven at like, so many different temps and they are all just baking.
Sou vide is different than boiling is different than pressure cooking.
Yeah but you do different things to get those besides just changing the temperature.
And you’ve been down there to make sure they’re not using oil?
