TikTok has been home to some of the most bizarre content creators the world has seen. If you think you’ve seen it all, you’re probably wrong. Meet Justin Beavo, the famous TikToker who’s suddenly going viral this past week. Beavo is not making pranks, challenge videos, or creating a new dance craze, instead, he’s just recording himself while eating. Yes, eating! But, recently, he’s doing something extraordinary that has brought attention from millions of viewers.
Beavo the Throat Goat
One of his viewers dubbed him the “Throat Goat” after his uncanny food-eating technique. With an innocent face, buck teeth, and his infamous no-chew food-swallowing trick, he’s become more than just the ordinary food vlogger. In many of his TikTok videos, Beavo just gulps any type of food without even chewing it. There are times he chews his food for a bit, but then he nonchalantly forces it down his throat. This caused Beavo to go viral and subsequently break the internet.
Justin Beavo takes on almost everything. From roasted chicken, burgers, fruits, and even chips, nothing gets past him. Unsurprisingly enough, there are times he looks like he is on the verge of choking. For everyone, that would be a dire scene.

Right now, Beavo accrued more than 1.6 million likes on TikTok. He also has a YouTube channel where he posts some of his sensational videos. Many TikTokers have reacted to his videos and have now started following his content. But, for health reasons, nobody should be doing this kind of stuff. Here’s why.
Chewing 101: What would happen to your body if you don’t chew your food enough?
For starters, choking is the biggest health hazard someone will suffer if they don’t chew enough or don’t chew at all. Not only is it dangerous, but it could also lead to death. Aside from food being trapped in the esophagus, failure to chew could also lead to acid reflux, bloating, gassy stomach, indigestion, diarrhea, and malnutrition. According to healthline.com, the magic number of how many times you should chew is 32 times. That means you should enjoy your sumptuous treat before completely swallowing it.
So, for your own sake, don’t follow what Beavo does. Even if he trained for that doesn’t mean he’s not susceptible to the risks mentioned above. So, chew your food!
