Where does snacc come from?

Snack was black slang for a “small penis” in the 1970s and gay slang for “male genitalia” in the 1980s.

But, in the 2000s, snack emerges as slang for an attractive person (i.e., someone who looks sexy enough to scarf down like a snack). This sense of snack is recorded on Urban Dictionary and found on Twitter by 2009.

Snacc, with two Cs, emerges on Black Twitter in 2009, the deliberate misspelling is consistent with other black slang terms, such as phat, thicc, and succ. Early uses of this snacc refer to actual snacks. Sexual senses of snacc do begin to appear around this time in wordplay, but it doesn’t take off in earnest until around 2017.

2017 also saw the spread of doggo, which uses cutesy misspellings to fawn over our pets online. This internet slang also uses snacc, which was notably incorporated into animal riffs on a He protec But He Also Attac meme. Snacc, here, is usually a punchline rhyme featured in images of animals, especially cats, well, snacking.
