What ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ means

In its plain use, ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ is calm and practical: dinner plans, restaurant reviews, menus and "let's eat" messages. It feels a bit more formal than ๐Ÿ• or ๐Ÿ” because it suggests a sit down meal. The slang use comes from the phrase "ate and left no crumbs", meaning someone did a great job, looked amazing or nailed a performance. In that sense it is warm, enthusiastic praise, often seen in comments.
