    I disagree about beans when made right theyre delish. But my question is do they want to poor to be farting up a storm constantly? Cuz if we live off beans we are gonna be farting. I know from experience ive lived off beans and rice for a time when money gets tight and omg the farting is nonstop.

      I’ve never met a bean that wasn’t a horrid texture. If you have a recommendation for how to prep them so they aren’t absolutely disgusting, I’d love to know because it would be nice to expand my food options, especially currently while I’m financially struggling.

          I’ll have to give them a shot. I used to hate hummus until I had some at a Greek place that made their own and discovered that it could be good. I’ll have to try roasting because I do like crunchy snacks.

        For dry beans i brine them then slow cook them and they turn out creamy. Do you like refried beans? Not like canned shit but from a nice mexican restaurant typa thing. Its hard for me to say what your issue is tho i have never been someone who cares much about food texture. I dont even notice it tbh im just there for flavors.

        I don’t know your life experience or what will work for you. But I spent 20 something years of my life gagging at beans. Now I will eat beans in most forms, except refried. I felt just like you, the texture was gross. I started with chilis and soups that had beans in it, but also other stuff to not focus on. Gradually I tried more and more bean dishes and have grown to enjoy them.

          Yeah, I have tried many, the texture still gets me every time. I’m hoping one day I’ll be find a preparation that isn’t horrible. I picked up some dry beans recently so I can see if making them from scratch is better because there’s been more than once where a pre-made version repulsed me but a homemade version turned out OK, I just need to find some good prep instructions.
