are soggy and limp or rubbery. Not a fav.

and corn is a close second.

I love 💕 all beans 🫘. Lima and navy beans are my favorites. 😋🙃. What, you don’t believe me. It’s true

The big ones are not the same

Just Yuck...

They are cooked right with a small piece of ham.

If I could pick two, I’d add mixed vegetables to my wish. Every other listed, I like.

UGGH.

I should add though that it is the only bean I won't eat.

We used to call lima beans "butter beans" when I was a kid growing up in Alabama.

Soups, scampi, etc., but lima beans? Never! LOL

my little heart ❤️ desires. Yum, yum, yummy 😋

But so many people be hating on them, you can't find them in stores anymore. Thanks a bunch : - (

No worries. I know I'm a weirdo as far as limas are concerned.

Why do they make that mix with lima beans? The lima beans aren't cooked enough.

A favorite recipe of my husband and I is Mama and Baby lima beans in a crockpot, add celery, bean sprouts, green onions, green pepper and a little bit of ham. I now add shredded lettuce at the bottom of the bowl. Yum!

Though recipe sounds good. I don't know if I could eat.

lima beans.

They come all the time meals on wheels and get tossed

I feel bad not eating them but i can't

And their hard

because I love pea soup, but just not peas!

They have a weird taste which is like none of them individually. And unlike a lot of you, I like lima beans, but only when cooked correctly, with bacon or some smoked side meat.

Lima beans rule! Try The Mayan Café in Louisville, KY and you will change your mind.

I have always hated them, too, but this information makes the idea sound interesting, possibly! Something to think about, for sure!

five or six different cans of veggies, look and see what leftovers I have in the fridge, and viola! I have a nice soup, either in the crock pot or on the stove cooking away. If I had a meat of some sort, I'd put some of it in there too.

I am sorry that I got offtrack, when I saw your ? about veggies (which one to pull?), my mind just locked up and the soup portion of my brain kicked in! Ha ha heh.

kinda' like kale .. ? It IS edible .. but why .. ?

Don't like the texture.
Most any other bean is ok.
All other veggies are good by me.

That was Easy! (I don't know why, but I do like Butter Beans, even though Lima Beans suck)

I love peas and green beans

I like all the others individually, and if I want mixed vegetables I can use the others to make my own.

Sweet peas? Yuck, banish them from the planet.
Blackeyed or purple hull peas, yummy.

Otherwise, lose the green beans.

gross.

not because I like it the least (that would be green beans) but because I'm allergic to it.

Gah! 😖

Lima beans. If they're not in the pack of frozen veggies, I'll buy a separate pack of lima beans

Yuck the texture alone makes me gag!

But I will have all of yours, so keep on with the hating!

including the limas. 😉

I'm going to mention that the only side vegetables that I eat are broccoli, cauliflower and green beans.


I only eat green beans if they're fresh and made Italian style... simmered in extra virgin olive oil, lightly salted with minced garlic. I've also made them in the air fryer like this as well. I won't eat green bean casserole because it's generally been contaminated with gluten with the Cream of Mushroom soup and generally contaminated with some sort of breading.


I have a gluten sensitivity that wrecks havoc on my body so I have to watch out for this type of thing all the time.


I don't like peas and I'm like a child and pick those out nasty things out of whatever I'm eating if someone threw them in. These are definitely in my "Yuck" category.


I'm not a big fan of carrots either but if they've been cooked and are soft and tender I might consume a few of them.


I don't eat corn, beans in general or potatoes mainly because of the carb counts. Once in awhile, I might indulge in a dish of homemade mashed potatoes or homemade chili. I love chili!

summer veg.

Back in the bad old days when the US Military ate C-rations, one meal was "Ham and lima beans," or as the unfortunates who drew it in their rations called it, "motherfuckers and ham."

-- Mal

At least that is the shape and texture. Color is probably wrong.

We should not eat them. God only knows where they come from.

As a child I refused to eat them and was physically forced to eat them. In hindsight getting into the mind of my dad who has since passed was that money was tight, and I was unwilling to consume a cheap source of protein. Still love my dad but it was abuse.

Now I don't have problems eating them (except for being somewhat keto non-compliant), but I can't get the memory out of my mind.

I would drop corn now because of the keto implications.
