fantastic and rare depiction of common/lower-class people's typical food in early modern southern europe: spinach pie, bean soup, bread, green onions, some kinda wine. Nutritionally balanced, vegetarian, tasty. Not all fancy meat and pickled fish guts or whatever like the aristocracy eats nor the bowl of insipid gruel of stereotypical boil-ridden peasants. Makes the past seem like an ordinary place for ordinary people
Also I like how Bean Man looks annoyed at being stared at while he gets his bean on. I bet this is based on a quick sketch the artist made at lunch
You're right, the facial expression is great. The next words out of his mouth could be "naff off, I'm eating beans" but they could just as easily be "would you like to try these beans?"
I love the idea of a bundle of green onions as a condiment, why cut it when you can just snack on it like crudite
NGL sometimes when I'm cooking I'll just straight up munch on onions and garlic raw. Green onions are my favorite onions.
Damn, that's a reasonable amount. I'm at the point where i go through a bottle a week.
Does it count though if you're just cooking stuff in veggie oil or using it to grease up a pan?

Why is he holding his spoon like that? He's gonna spill.
Beans are the chads of the vegetable world. I'm gonna be making a cold Butterbean salad in honor of this post.
