Jellybean Sweets, or Jenna, is a 20 year old TikToker and has been called out for performing feeder content. As we all know, binge eating disorder is a serious case and it is not one to be joked or exploited on. In this case, it seems to reach past binge eating. Is she ruining herself from these videos, or is she still healthy?
She has once posted 24 videos of her eating fast food in one week. Many accounts on TikTok have reached out to Jellybean Sweets on fake accounts to request certain types of content, inappropriate content, such as purposely eating messy. After a few days, they check to see if she posted it and she has.
The word “mukbang” originates from South Korea, meaning a video where a person eats food while addressing or speaking to the audience. In most videos, mukbangs are appropriate and genuinely have no hidden meaning behind them, but not in Jellybean Sweet’s videos.
Some people say she is becoming the next Nikocado Avocado, another mukbanger who has gone viral for overeating.
Feederism is a kink regarding feeding someone, with the purpose of making them gain weight. She purposely eats an excessive amount of food while being messy using a lot of dipping sauces for her content.
One might see this as unnatural behavior, but feederism has been taking a rise on the internet in the form of mukbangs to disguise them. Countless mukbangers do feederism to make money fast and most people blindly watch it without knowing the reason why the video was made.
Jellybean Sweets started off as a normal mukbanger, eating somewhat healthy foods and had an innocent account. Then, once the fame started rolling in, she started getting weird requests and she started listening to them just because of the money she’d get from it. In the case of Nikocado Avocado, he wasn’t performing feederism, he just wanted fame by overeating.
If you scrolled down to near the bottom of Jellybean Sweet’s videos, you’d find out how slow, controlled, and appropriate her mukbangs were. She was always glowing; she had a healthy and maintained weight. Now, if you scroll back up, she is eating huge meals in 4 minutes or less.
“Could her content be influencing others?”
Gianna Gonzales, a freshman at Pitman High School, has an answer to that.
“No, I don’t think so because most people will see the outcome of overeating and feederism and decide that they don’t want to do that”.
Jellybean Sweets is ruining her life in many different ways, here’s what Harleen Hundal, a senior at Pitman High School, says about that.
“I think she’s ruining her life because she’s normalizing bad eating habits, and she’s damaging her health by gaining unhealthy weight”.
Will JellyBean Sweets fix herself, or will she bring herself to the breaking point of her health?
