The phrase 'Built Like a Baked Bean' emerged as a humorous and surreal internet insult used to describe someone with a stout, rounded, or lumpy physique. While it shares roots with British slang, the term skyrocketed in popularity across social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter, often paired with 'deep-fried' images or photos of people in bulky clothing like puffer jackets. It represents a specific brand of chaotic humor where the comparison is so specific yet nonsensical that it becomes instantly funny. Today, users apply the template to everything from video game characters to pets, turning a simple breakfast food into one of the internet's favorite lighthearted roasts.
