r/BoneAppleTea began as a meme where someone said, obviously, 'bone apple tea' instead of 'bon appétit.' The meaning of the term for this subreddit is slightly different now:Ī Bone Apple Tea is the mistaken use of a real, dictionary-defined word or phrase in place of another real, dictionary-defined word or phrase that sounds similar, resulting in a nonsensical, sometimes humorous utterance.
