Nacirema culture is a satirical representation of American culture, highlighting the rituals and practices surrounding health and beauty. The term "Nacirema" is "American" spelled backward, and the culture is characterized by elaborate rituals centered on the human body, including daily practices involving shrines and the use of various potions and treatments. These practices, while often viewed as eccentric from an outsider's perspective, reflect the values and obsessions of contemporary American society with physical appearance and wellness. Through this lens, the Nacirema serve as a critique of how cultural norms can normalize seemingly bizarre behaviors.
