That’s cool. It’s only later in life that I came to know that some people associated beans with poverty.
When I was growing up, it was just another staple protein, along with lentils, chickpeas, soy, and occasionally meat. So I just kept that up when I started shopping and cooking for myself.
Glad you were able to get over a negative first impression! That’s impressive.
I was at a comic con where when you wanted a burger or something you had to wait in line for like 30 minutes. They also had. A stand with vegan wraps. I don’t know exactly what was in it, but i think it’s some sort of fried chickpeas. It was one of the best things i ever ate, and there was no pine at all.
Just make falafel. A good falafel wrap is just delicious on its own. Deep fried chickpeas. Absolutely amazing.
I’ve had some amazing black bean burgers, and they opened my eyes to how awesome beans can be.
A great food experience is crucial to letting people see that it’s not so bad cutting back on meat.
Well, the thing about falafel is that you’re not necessarily cutting back on meat. You’re just eating falafel because of how good it is –
There’s no mental disconnection that “oh man, I wish this was beef”, no, it’s just “God damn this tahina sauce and pickled cabbage is amazing”
I’d argue that’s the same for black bean burgers. They are not like faux meat burgers, but a thing on their own.
Yep, which is why I offered that as a supporting example!
You’ve convinced me. I’m gonna try one next time I’m getting burgers. What sauces go well with black bean burger?
They are pretty versatile, especially if they are homemade. But my go-to’s are a smokey bbq sauce or sriracha mayo
Mmm, spicy mayo sounds good. How about cheeses, what goes perfectly with a black bean burger?
Eh, anything that melts I’d suppose. Most of the times I used gouda, because that’s what was in the fridge
Some time ago, i ate beans when i needed to save money. I didn’t hate it, but i didn’t love it.
Now i get super excited when i have beans at home that are already soaked and ready to go. Beans are fantastic.

Black beans with bulger and spices, miam miam!
It does not do well on a grill, though, so be warned
