Thank you

"The name quenelle comes from an elongated fish meatballs dish, which is said to look like a suppository.[2] Hence, the phrase "mettre une quenelle" ("to give someone the quenelle "), with a gesture simulating fisting practice,[2] is similar to the English "up yours".[citation needed]. The arm outstretched refers to the length of the arm going up one's bottom.[3]"

I had no idea that a quenelle was supposed to look like a suppository.
