How it works

With feelings like 大好き(だいすき) (love), Japanese marks the thing you love with が (subject), not the object particle — so 豆(まめ) (beans) is grammatically the subject: "beans are loved (by me)". 大好き(だいすき) (love) is a describing word, so no verb is needed; the plain form simply trails off, leaving it casual.
