Description

A legume is a collective term for the tiny green conspirators that masquerade as heroes of the dinner table while plotting insurrection in your gut. Hailed as nutritional saviors, they often serve as front-line gas factories, unknowingly sowing seeds of abdominal discord. Beloved by vegans and stamina chasers alike, their true gift is regularly reminding us of the limits of ‘self-control.’ Though relegated to the supporting cast beside grains and veggies, they have a knack for stealing the spotlight when least expected. In essence, they are zealous missionaries of the health-cult masquerading as wholesome food.
