Did you know?
Green beans are also called snap beans or string beans because of their crisp “snap” when broken.
They originated in Central and South America and were later spread worldwide.
Unlike dry beans, the entire pod is eaten raw or cooked.
In France, they’re known as haricots verts, which are thinner and more delicate.
Drawback
Eating them raw in very large amounts may cause gas or bloating due to fiber.
Some people find them tougher to digest when raw compared to cooked.
