Ok, at least I don't feel so silly now. And Diana/Janet you should know because Diana, you may grow them or Janet, I think I remember you mentioning they are grown near you.
Soybeans! And the beans are delicious to eat, who knew??? My daughter ordered them one day for my granddaughter at a restaurant and they looked like green lima beans, only a little fatter. She seemed to love them. I tasted them and they were OK. Anyway, I got some yesterday and steamed them and then just put a little salt on them and they were delicious!
They also come in pods like snow peas, but as I understand it, you dont' eat the pods, you open them and scoop out the beans - so why would you want to do that, when they come already shelled.
They are 100 calories for 1/2 cup and little fat. Pretty good side dish. I've seen them in salads, but didn't know what they were. I'm going to try to eat more of them!!! Now I need to hunt for recipes.
