So very shortly after the reddit API fiasco, when a LOT of people migrated to Lemmy...someone noticed the high percentage of "upvotes" on Lemmy comments. They made a post stating "People on Lemmy will upvote anything." With a pic of Heinz baked beans. It became, at the time, the most upvoted post on all of Lemmy. Hence, Lemmy has always upvoted beans.....

So beans are a meme thing now, are they? Should I bother finding out why?

OK, that's pretty funny. Thanks for the heads up. Beanz have been funny since The Goodies' fake ads back in the day - "Get it RIGHT!'
I will, however, add that beans are delicious and it's not all that controversial to upvote them.

It was unfair of my prev comment to judge without explaining.
