the actual behavior here is to echo the literal string "$foobar", because the $ sign is escaped. so no variable expansion will take place at all.

Oh lol. It doesn't show the $ at all on my mobile app till I escaped it

You should use markdown's inline code (single `backtick`) and

block code
(triple backtick)

tags. They are consistent across most markdown renderers (except Reddit's, which uses four-space indentations (like, who the fuck thought that was a good idea?))
