[at-l] at-l Digest, beans

[Lilla Thompson]

But if you buy beans without meat in them, spoilage becomes less of an issue...

I use Lucks canned beans for convenience. They already have a nice thick
broth like you get when you cook the dried ones at home and after
putting them in the fridge and re-heating a few times they get the same
thick broth. Be sure and remove the little chunk of fat from the canned
beans. Fat doesn't dry and can go rancid after a long storage. Also I
store my dried stuff in several layers of zip lock bags in the freezer.
           I checked out that online beanery for dried stuff. Picked out
a sample order but then the shipping of almost $8. I didn't buy. I hate
the high shipping costs we have now. Also I noted the serving sizes were
12 0z average for about $3.50. You know thats almost the cost of 20 oz
of Mountain House FD foods at Walmart. Now if you could just buy a 5#
bag of dehydrated beans it might be a better buy. They had some bulk but
I wasn't real clear that they were not just dried beans that take all
day to cook instead of dehydrated that cook quickly.

 ps beano actually helps your body remove move food value from the
beans, instead of wasting the excess food into the air
