Setsubun is a February holiday celebrated in two ways these days:
(1) Adults (usually persons living in the neighborhood) dress as demons (oni・ãŠã«ãƒ»é¬¼) and run about "scaring" children. The children toss dried beans (usually soybeans) at the demons to drive them away.
(2) People eat one dried soybean for each year they have lived.
