Kidney beans do not agree with me. In fact, we are having a major disagreement.

*curls up under blankets*

Imma watch some TV.

Drink hot tea, preferably chamillon tea.

Urg. I have a similar problem with navy beans. It saddens me, because few things go better with cornbread than slow-cooked beans. (Except slow-cooked chili.)

Welcome to my hell. I can't eat any beans unless they are pureed like chickpeas in hummus and things like kidney beans? Never. D: Hot water bottle?

You should take the beans to court. I find that shortens almost all disagreements. :D

All jokes aside, hope you and your beans come to some sort of compromise soon. :)

(Its not the beans, its having to be in the same physical area for too many waking hours with Co-Worker Fail.)

Kidney beans are poisonous if improperly prepared.

Did you cook them yourself? Were they dry or canned?

Always boil dry kidney beans for at least 5-10 minutes. Even if you simmer them for hours and hours, if you don't get the heat up high enough for a little while, you can make yourself very sick.

click the link and search for "extribuli".

I found a cafe reader! (I mean, out of the 25 google hits for 'extribuli', 23 are yours, one is in Hindu, and one is his).

I really don't like kidney beans. Not because of the taste or even the texture.

It's because every time my Dad would make chili, it'd look like there were beetles crawling around the pot. I just...can't handle them. They get picked out of every meal I find them in.

Beans! *Shakes fist!*

Feel better soon.

Are you familiar with a product called Beano?

If you tend to have trouble with gas from beans, in general, Beano is a really good thing to have on hand. You take 2 or 3 tablets of it before you eat the beans. My experience is that I'm a lot less likely to have trouble if I do this. I still get some gas, but it tends not to be painful.

...Have I hit TMI, yet?

I hope you feel better soon.

I have avoided beans for the last couple of years after a similar experience with a bean "chilli" served on a cycling holiday. It was the only veggie option, so it was eat that or be hungry, but in retrospect, hunger would have been more pleasant. It didn't even taste of anything much, hence the quote marks...

The only 'beans' I ever eat come in a tin with the word 'Heinz' on the front. Toast is usually involved too. I'm hungry now and I'm supposed to be writing a play damnit! Beans on toast is proper student food though.
