Happy National Bean Day! Canada is one of the world’s top producers of dry beans, including navy, kidney, and black beans, mostly grown in Ontario and the Prairies. Dry beans are part of the legume family, plants that can take nitrogen from the air and put it back into the soil. Along with chickpeas, lentils, and dry peas, they’re classified as pulses — the dry seed of a legume. Unlike soybeans and peanuts, pulses are very low in fat. #ONTAg #NationalBeanDay #Beans #DryBeans
