    Ok, i know this is a controversial topic, and could lead to rancor and animosity. Possibly even pandemonium. But..what is your favorite Bean ?

    I might have to go with the Moth Bean. Vigna Aconitifolia.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigna_aconitifolia
    Predominantly grown in India and Pakistan.

    Now, if anyone says LENTILS, I’m prepared to flame you for the rest of your live.

    Okay–I’m like the guy who shows up at a fancy party in a ripped t-shirt and jeans and swigs a beer but I don’t know one bean from another. I do know I like this:

    Mr. Bean and kidney bean.

    I make nice Pinto beans.

    And Black beans.

    I don’t stray too far, when it comes to beans.

    I am a “beans n rice” kinda guy.

    Green beans and wax beans are my favorites. Oddly, I prefer canned green or wax beans over fresh or frozen.

    That is odd. Really fresh green beans are great if not over cooked. Very easy to grow too.

    Good Lord, you people are SAD.

    Check out the Wiki site, and take a blood-oath, as well as a Vow
    to expand your pathetically small Bean spectrum.

    Jesus H Crist, there are hyacinth beans, Winged beans, Pigeon Peas, Velvet Beans, Sword Beans, Lupini Bean….

    I bet Zooey has tried every bean on that list.

    Now, Bean-UP people. Geez.

    And as for PA-ram….he needs to be put in a bean re-education camp.

    My wife loves lupini beans, which I to her annoyance call “lumpy peanut beans.”

    Speaking just for myself, wv, I am an old “been there done that” kinda guy, and like my old trusty favorites. It took a lifetime to figure out what those were. So you young guys with yer new-fangled postmodern multicultural beans? I wish you the best. You guys climb everest…I am hanging back at the base camp watching re-runs on my phone.

    Yeah, well you know who you remind me of Mr No-new-Beans-For-Me-I-bin-there-and-done-that ?

    You remind me of James Earl Jones in Field of Dreams. Back when he was all
    cynical and tired and lost.

    You say that as if it were a bad thing.

    Apparently wv is a bean elitist.

    There’s no room on wv’s table for baked beans.

    On those warm summer evenings in the Hamptons with a cool breeze blowing in off the sound wv likes to dine on velvet beans with a 200 year old bottle of merlot. He smirks as he thinks of all those ignorant commoners washing down baked beans with copious amounts of Bud Lite…

    It doesn’t show up at all. I tried to fix it via Secret Powers Intrusive Invisible Edit but couldn’t. The url for the pic isn’t “recognized.”

    I figure that means something has gone horribly wrong with the internet, and this is just the first disturbing symptom.

    Mine is:

    Bean Roma II

    From Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company (RareSeeds.com)

    The description is: “This is an improved Romano, bush type, green bean that produces loads of 6″ to 7″ wide pods that are very flavorful”

    This is my fourth or fifth year planting this variety. Haven’t been disappointed yet.

    LOL!

    Okay, Zooey–I honestly tried to respond with an applause GIF and when I tried to post it I got the image–or lack of an image–you see in the above post. Somehow that’s more fitting. A happy accident.
