If you've never eaten cold beans straight out of the can, you're not working class
What kind of beans we talking? Like you can eat beans that come with some kind of sauce straight out of the can, but plain unwashed beans? That will make you gag for sure.
Hell yeah sister but not the slime liquid that usually comes with canned beans
Bean liquid is vile. It is not enough to say you personally do not drink it, you have to actively oppose drinking it.
meh, tastes ok. it's just bean juice and brine. too salty to drink but I'm not gonna go wash the beans off first or anything.
Ok, I think maybe there are different kinds of bean juices and we are not used to the same bean juice. I'm talking about the bean juice that once prompted someone online to say:
The first time I tried black beans from a can I didn't know you were supposed to drain them, nor did I know how to cook em. So I put them on the stove with all that nasty fluid and used it to boil them. Worst shit I've ever put in my mouth, I had no idea how people could eat those without spraying vomit all over the walls.
idk, I eat black beans from the can all the time. can't say I've ever cooked the beans in the juice without a bunch of other stuff but I don't see why not. it's salty and bean-y. I can see it being good for different kinds of broths and soups.
Yeah well the only way I can reconcile that fact is by believing that we're talking about different kinds of bean juices. I don't believe you would say this if we had tasted the same bean juice.
maybe but now I kinda want to try it. name a brand and I'll get back to you.
I live in France so I don't think I can help you with that :( However I have contacted the person who wrote the above quote and will get back to you if and when I have more information.
(I think it's possible that I have brainwashed myself into believing the bean juice is gross while in reality it's not that gross)
I got a response, very informative.
I am very glad to hear u are so very interested in bean slime. I personally believe that all bean slime is rather gross regardless of the brand. Walmart brand bean slime is gross and so are more expensive brands, I hope this helps solve ur puzzle.
So there you have it folks.
ok I've eaten Walmart brand bean slime and did not puke. it's got a lot of crap in it as preservatives so I recommend washing those beans off anyway but the slime just tastes like beans.
I'm glad we managed to get to the bottom of this.
This was a productive struggle session.
I do not know the person and did not know how to phrase the question in a way that's not weird so I figured I'd just roll with it and made it very weird. I have high hopes.
Beans on toast counts but it's still kinda gourmet compared to out of the can
Sexual impropriety of any kind is bourgeois comrade. Piss play especially given famous reactionary Joey Salads insatiable thirst for the fluid.
Good for soil health, boost the growth of any plant they're planted next to.
Final verdict: :halal:
My mom used to make beanbags at home with pinto beans. We still have a few ancient bags around and I don't know if they're a biohazard. They're kept in the freezer and used as cold packs.
Everyone's going off on the food angle, but let me give a different take on beans. Or rather, Legumes in general, which in addition to beans also includes peas, chickpeas/garbonzabeans, lentils and various other plants such as clover. Shoutout to my boy Kropotkin on this one, cuz legumes are special in that they have a mutualistic symbiosis with bacteria that coinhabit their root systems, which allows them to fix nitrogen. Aside from Carbon (the primary bulk of of what makes up life, which is fixed through photosynthesis in all plants), the biggest 3 elements required for plant growth are Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium: these are what most fertilizers provide. You might be thinking, "But wait, isn't nitrogen what makes up a majority of the atmosphere" Yes, it does, in the form N2, which has a triple-bond holding the pair together, and as such is very stable and unreactive, making it a pain to do anything with. The bacteria in the roots binds the nitrogen into ammonia, which is a useful form a nitrogen for life, and shares it with the plant, and in return the plant shares some of its carbon and energy. Since the Haber Process (the normal way nitrogen is created to supply to plants as fertilizer) can be incredibly bad for the environment, lets take a moment to appreciate this often overlooked aspects of beans.
Real talk, if you use a sump system with an aquarium with larger pet fish (e.g., fancy goldfish or maybe tiger oscars), and run the sump into an aeroponic grow system, the plants' roots will soak up a lot of the ammonia from the fish, leaving you with happy plants and cleaner water for your fish. That said, I'm not sure that the plants would be safe to eat, given how nasty some aquarium chemicals are. It could work for something like flowers or maybe hemp, though.
In large scale operations, this is completely safe, they monitor the water heavily and the fish are kept on a specific diet to avoid contamination of the water, and then everything is cleaned off at harvest. It's pretty doable at home provided you do your research and get everything set up properly. If you just slap some plants in a fish tank with some goldfish you'll have a bad time
This is how traditional chinese/asian rice paddies were kept. A population of carp were kept in the paddies to keep the water clear of pests and to offer another food source.

That's awesome; thanks for the link!
This reaffirms that my idea of doing a Walstad-style natural planted tank with an aeroponic sump isn't completely mad scientist talk.
I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real I'm on the beans for the real, I'm on the lean for real
All my latino family yells at me for not eating beans generally about once a week
