IĀ had a few thoughts on Bush's Beans new line of merch.
When I had first seen theĀ merch for Bushās BeansĀ I asked myself who had asked for it. I didnāt. You didnāt. I imagine the only person who could have asked isĀ dude whoĀ spilled baked beans all over himself watching Cars 2 in theaters & a black teenager shouted āthis nigga eating beansā & everyone laughed.Ā
However, theĀ whyĀ is nowhere as important as theĀ whereĀ in asking where they went wrong. While most of theĀ items make absolute sense for the brand, I still have some constructive criticism Iāll offer you as I couldnāt reach Bushās creative team for comment.Ā
Ā 1. Thereās a t-shirt reading, āBEANS ARE A VIBEā when it could have read, āKeep It A Beanā. Synonymous with ābe truthfulā I think this reflects a good andĀ honestĀ cultural/generational disconnect.Ā
2. Neither of the branded desktop cornhole boards even utilized bean-shaped bags for tossing. That seemed too easy, respectfully.Ā
3. Branded outdoor bean bag chairs! Ofc.Ā
4. A branded serving spoon could have had a moment.
5. Even branded aluminum foil for the grill. Itās a thing.Ā
6. Bean-shaped string lights areĀ what would have been a vibe for every BBQ that runs late.

There's a new search engine in town.
To āGoogle itā is synonymous with to āsearch it".Ā And these days we know we can TiktokĀ it. CountingĀ on anonymous reviews to research a product is hardly reliableĀ especially if a review is ācollected as part of a promotionā.Ā
Reviews by aĀ regular degular shmegularĀ user on TikTok carry genuine pull via increased appealĀ to ethos. And Iām talking reviews forĀ anythingĀ at all. AsĀ over 53% of Tiktok users are over age 30, itās less an app for Gen Z and more an app for you and me (whoever that āmeā may be). Iāve rounded up a few notableĀ videos and have listed them for your ownĀ review below.
Hair Product Haul- In this video, David doesn't shareĀ his faves, but his anti-faves. By reviewingĀ various hair products for the curliest of the curly, the audience is given a feedback bundle.
Dime Beauty Co. FragrancesĀ - Here we have a fungirl. Toriās confidence in her self translates to what products she reviews.Ā
Trader Joeās Birria PizzaĀ - ThisĀ user had initially reviewed her first trip to Trader Joeās and shared her less-than thoughts on it with Tiktok. After widespread disbelief/backlash, she created what she never thought she'd recommend.Ā
