Red lentils are my rock
>superb macros/calories ratio
>epic ez fiber intake
>unlike other lentil types, reds dont need time wasting fucking bullshit like soaking in water for hours and hours before cooking. Can be cooked into soup in 10 minutes from the shelf
>great and malleable taste profile and can be comboed with anything from eggs to meat to vegs to bread
>cheap as shieeet
Since getting fit largely due to this good shit, ive always wondered why jeets often look so dysgenic and gut bloated when they use lentils so much

Emaciated with distended pot belly is common in the third world. It's due to parasites. And thanks to globohomo you can now experience this in the West!

black beans, pinto beans, or great northern beans, because they all mix best with rice

no it's due to malnutrition

>>21963134
lima beans are great

>>21963134
Adzuki and soy desu

>>21963134
Soaked pinto beans smell like peanuts

>>21963134
Black beans and kidney beans are my fav.

As for the rest, lentils and garbanzos/chickpeas can be great especially if it’s a spiced Middle Eastern/Persian/Indian preparation. Haven’t eaten adzuki beans in any other form other than red bean paste, which was great. Fava beans are fire if it’s ful medammes. The rest are varying degrees of meh, though I wouldn’t mind soy if it’s soy milk and Sichuan mapo tofu

Oof, I knew when I started reading this that it would be some vapid soulless post from some /fit/ retard with no personality. The boredom has probably shaved a year off my life. Mind numbing.

Also thank you, I needed to sleep.

>>21963159
They’re really better than other lentils?
>>
>>21963696
Their time sensitive trait is the best thing about them to me so yes they are better unless there are other lentils that dont need to be soaked

>>21963134
I eat a couple different types of bean/legume/nuts. I think chickpeas are pretty damn crazy. I don't eat em as much as cheaper stuff like lentils or pintos, but damn chickpeas are versatile af. I think I recall a Mary's Test Kitchen youtube vid about them. Like, you could make eggs in some way. Maybe she made tofu out of em. Hummus is damn amazing too, or put in your curry, or indian foods/snacks

As a different choice, I've only had a handful of times, but butter beans (mature lima that are white and not green anymore) really do live up to their name, like super creamy.

No lentil needs to be soaked unless you're Indian and you're making dosa.
>Like, you could make eggs in some way (from chickpeas)
Nope. You can use chickpea curd to simulate scrambled egg but it's not going to be 1:1 at all. Not even close. Chickpea flour +water +oil can be used as a replacement for egg in batters and baking but chickpea flour "omelettes" are even less like egg than chickpea curd scramble is.
All that said, I'm from Naples so I'm practically 30% chickpeas by weight though they're not my favourite bean. That's likely fava.
Also, I used to date a Nigerian and she cooked these things called African honeybeans that are made with crushed roasted prawn shells and chilies and stuff and they're delicious but I'm unsure how they are plain.

It’s a chronic dietary protein deficiency syndrome named ‘Kwashiorkor’.

I wish I could eat beans. I'm allergic. I can't. Why? I'm sad.

My favorites are:
>big white beans (I think they are Lima or Navy, the cans just say "white beans" over here)
>kidney beans
>black beans

They are good for different things. Big white creamy beans can be used as meat alternative. They have a similar texture to stewed meat and don't overpower anything in your stew.

Kidney beans are great for hot dishes like Chili con Carne. They take longer to fall apart than other beans so you can actually chew on something.

Black beans are a little sweeter than other beans and easily fall apart. They are great as part of burrito fillings for example or in salads.

For bean stew I just mix all three with some pork, peeled tomatoes, onions, carrots, celeriac and leeks. Having three different kinds of beans in the stew keeps it interesting.

I mostly eat kidney beans and black beans
I do like eating soy beans in a pod with some salt though it's a nice snack
