How and When to Use the 🧆 Falafel Emoji

  • For starters (puns intended), you can use 🧆 while sharing pictures and/or videos of falafels; a personal post for ‘trying falafel for the first time’ or even a repost of the ‘best falafel in town’, etc.
  • Also, 🧆 can be used while generally speaking of Middle Eastern food, either as an informative post about an upcoming food festival or even a mouth-watering video of Middle Eastern street food, anything.
  • On some platforms, 🧆 is designed without the pita. So, in such cases, this emoji can be used to refer to meatballs, keema balls, and other related dishes that compose of only croquettes.
  • In contexts of “What’s cooking” or “What did you have for lunch”, you can send 🧆 if falafel was what was happening.
