            All beans taste different so I guess I don’t understand the question. A garbanzo is way different from a kidney and both way different from a butter bean.

              And yet almost all of them have a basic ‘bean’ taste to them that I don’t like. You remind me of people who tell me I just haven’t had the right olive when I say I don’t like olives.

              I mean it’s like you think I have to enjoy eating the same things you do.

                Peas are part of the same family as beans. Do sweat peas taste like “beans”?

                I don’t think you have to like the same things I like, but I also don’t think I believe it when someone writes off an entire family of plants. At least all olives are the same species. Legumes have such a huge variety that it’s hard to grasp the idea of disliking them all.

                  it’s hard to grasp the idea of disliking them all.

                  What part of “almost all” is unclear to you?

                  I’m sorry, I’m not going to like most beans no matter how hard you try to talk me into enjoying their generally common basic flavor.

                    That’s because I don’t actually believe they have a generally common basic flavor?

                    Also, peas and rice are also a perfectly acceptable way to get protein.
