2. I had some with a friend

they were really good. Her daughters eat them for snacks.

[porphyrian]

3. I've only had it twice so far...

...so I really haven't formed an opinion of it. I don't think I hate it, though.

4. How about....

what the fuck is it?
:wtf:

5. Soybeans. n/t

6. Soybeans.

You can prepare them any number of ways -- both for snacks and as a vegetable to have with a meal. We buy the frozen ones, packaged like any other frozen vegetable (out of the shell, at least the ones we've been buying). They taste kind of like a sweet lima bean. Haven't had any of the fried or baked ones, prepared for snacks yet -- though we used to get roasted ones when I was a kid, and I didn't really care for them.

10. ahhhh

I eat soy nuts - does that count?

[Philostopher]

11. Those are the ones I didn't like, when I was a kid.

Yeah -- it's the same stuff. The 'soy nuts' are just a roasted version of the beans.

13. Soy nuts are like sawdust to me

too dry - blech!

[mrboba1]

14. the ones I get are good!

I've had crappy ones too though...

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

15. What kind do you get

I wanted them to be good

[luaneryder]

7. I swear I tried to like them!

But, I just can't get past the taste. Bleah!

8. I like to eat a mommy.

I do it every night. :evilgrin:

9. I get them from the Japanese restaurant

and I love them. Recently I saw them in Safeway (frozen) so I bought some. How would I fix them? Put them on a cookie sheet and in the oven? Suggestions?

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

12. No no - just put em in a microwave safe bowl add some water and cook

for about 3 minutes! They can be steamed and boiled - but only for a few minutes.

[MrsMatt]

20. I prefer to steam them

on the stove, as sometimes they get a little too dry using the mike.

Our seven year old daughter loves them!

[MissMillie]

16. are those pea pods or sugar snap peas?

I like those two things.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

17. Fresh soy beans

[MissMillie]

18. ah...

never had 'em

[MyUncle]

19. My kids love them too!
