There's no denying eight-time Golden Globe winner Meryl Streep is a living legend.
Now, she's the star of tasteofstreep, an Instagram account dedicated to melding photographs of the actress with images of food.
In 2015, now-graphic designer Samantha Raye uploaded her first post to tasteofstreep and soon after, People magazine took note. "They tweeted a link to my Instagram when I only had about 300 followers," Raye told Business Insider. That led to reposts from fashion blogs and "that’s when it truly blew up overnight," says Raye.
Now, the account has 112,000 followers and an impressive body of images.
See some of Raye's creations and learn about her experiences below—just try not to get too hungry or star struck.
Samantha Raye, the woman behind tasteofstreep, created her first food-meets-Meryl image while on a family vacation. 'I remember sitting in the living room at some odd hour of the night with my computer, googling complete nonsense when I came across a picture of Meryl Streep in Mamma Mia.' Soon after, the actress was floating atop a pizza slice, with lightening bolts shooting out of her hands.

To create each post, Raye constantly scours the internet for photos of Streep. Once she finds one she likes, she pays special attention to Streep's body positioning and the clothing she's wearing.
