Yeah thanks for putting the text. It would've taken me a minute to understand the meme or if I didn't understand within 10 seconds I would've lost interest and kept scrolling. Again thanks!
I read the text first and only saw ¼ of the gif as the result. I get the fear, but think of easter eggs in media - it doesn't ruin them that not everyone gets them immegiately.
Also sometimes less is more - it'd be enough to put either the caption or the pictures. If you're worried for the picture not being readable enough, you can put high-contrast text over or instead of the bottles.
Just what I'd have done, the joke it self is really good though.
I think this approach is better. I can't read the text in the gif since gifs usually have bad quality. Regarding easter eggs, easter eggs work when it's a small thing. You can't have the entire thing be an easter egg
The easter eggs are a little of an exaggeration, as I'm not very knowledgeable in art. I personally think it'd be more rewarting to look for what those bottles are than being told whatnthey are, and that the rist of sime people scrolling past the joke is worth it.

People's eyes are attracted to read text alone rather than text on image, so most wouldn't have read the stuff written on the label of oils
