Beans: Why do we eat them?

[Gooch1034]

along with "why do we force feed corn to cows"?

answer to both: because we subsidize farmers to grow far more than we need, so we turn it into unhealthy garbage like doritos and such, or turn it into high fructose corn syrup and put it in just about every food you can find in a grocery store, or force cows to eat it even though they can't digest it properly.

Oh, I was leaning more towards the madness of eating corn and seeing it in the same form in the shitter later.

answer to both: because we subsidize farmers to grow far more than we need, so we CAN turn it into unhealthy garbage like doritos and such, or turn it into high fructose corn syrup and put it in just about every food you can find in a grocery store, or force cows to eat it even though they can't digest it properly.

since i've stopped eating all flour and rice, beans are my staple with any meat dish.

i cook a pound every few days in a pressure cooker.

i also make my own hummus from garbanzo beans i cook.

delicious.

They're also damn near a perfect food. Great source of protein, carbs, and fiber, as well as a bunch of minerals that we need. Of course you have to season them. That's the way real food works.

no flour or rice?
