Roughly 30 teens referred to Rush University Medical Center in the past year displayed a range of involuntary actions, from jerking arm movements to curse words to head and neck twitches. Self-injurious behavior was common, according to some doctors, with many patients displaying bruises and abrasions resulting from their tics. Caroline Olvera, a movement-disorders fellow, noticed that numerous teens were saying the word “beans,” often in a British accent. Even patients who didn’t speak English were saying it. Some patients mentioned they had seen TikTok videos of others with tics.

    Not gonna defend shitty canned beans here but I will absolutely defend sweet beans, specifically Boston style baked beans. They're piss easy to make if you have a slow cooker or oven-safe pot like a Dutch oven, and molasses is way less sweet than brown sugar.
