All I've been seeing is beans π
bean the change you wanna see
a revolution starts with a single bean
Can someone explain the bean trend, sorry getting old bit of a has bean you could say β¦
Essentially someone posted a photo of some beans and said Lemmy will upvote anything, even just beans.
...we did.
Iβm a simple man. I see beans; I upvote.
Yup. Beans and poop. Quite frankly I'm not interested in either of those topics!
You should expand your horizons! Beans just come in so many variants. You got baked beans, half baked beans, twice baked beans (and so on), Lima beans, string beans, chili beans, things that look like beans but aren't (looking at you, peanuts are a legume), and the list goes on!
I guess I have a semi related question. It seems that canned baked beans are a staple for people in the UK. They even have it on toast of all things. Do canned baked beans taste different in the UK than they do in the US or are they the same? I'm in the US and I think they taste disgusting, but I wonder if they have a different flavor in the UK.
Basically yes they're very different. I saw a discussion earlier about which brands in the US are comparable, but god knows which of today's 7000 bean-related threads it was in!
I, for one, welcome our beany overlords
This is interesting and something I had always suspected. Now I want to know what UK baked beans taste like and if they don't taste like shit lol.
