Fellow editor Rebecca and I have decided to team up and tackle a mainstream internet challenge every week for however many weeks we can sustain! We decided to kick things off with the Bean Boozled Challenge, a challenge that puts your sense of taste through torture. If you are wondering where we procured these magically disgusting beans, I purchased them at the Freak Lunchbox on 17th Avenue.
To be honest, this challenge was a lot worse than I thought it would be. Would I still recommend it? Absolutely. You can see people on YouTube doing this challenge, but you will never truly understand just how awful the experience is until you’ve had it for yourself. These beans are definitely a great party game, or a good conversation starter if you decide to leave them somewhere like your office desk.
Would I do this again? No, probably not. The fates were smiling down on Rebecca that day and she managed to escape without tasting most of the bad beans. I, on the other hand, got to taste vomit, rotten eggs, and dog food. Admittedly, the vomit and dog food flavoured beans tasted worse than vomit in your mouth or real dog food would. I applaud Jelly Belly for their hard work and dedication to get these beans to taste as putrid as possible.
You can find Youth Are Awesome on: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube!
