Please, Show Your Respect...

Lima Bean Respect Day

Please, bow your head...

Respect for the bean! 

Lima beans are better known

to me as Butter Beans. 

I was reading a page

about the health benefits

 of these beans...

suffice to say –

they are beans...

they are good for you.

  I thought of this: 

“Beans, beans are good

 for your heart. 

Beans, beans make you fart. 

 The more you fart,

they better you feel,

so baked beans

for every meal!”

I was happy

when I stumbled

across this heading:

“Sensitive to Sulfites? 

 I may be wrong,

but don't people not drink wine

 because of sulphites? 

Well, listen up! 

 Lima beans are

an excellent source of

molybdenum...

this is an important component

of the enzyme sulphite oxidase

 – and it is this

which detoxifies sulphites...

 Huh? 

(Technical version is here)

Ok, eat lima beans =

drink wine – no headache! 

Cheers!
