🌱 Fun Green Bean Facts
Green beans go by many names! They’re also known as snap beans or string beans — though most modern varieties no longer have the tough “string” that needed to be removed.
Packed with nutrients. Green beans are a great source of fibre, vitamin C, folate, and antioxidants — helping support healthy digestion, immunity, and overall well being.
They’ve been enjoyed for thousands of years. Green beans were first cultivated in Central and South America over 7,000 years ago, before spreading across the globe.
Record breakers! The heaviest serving of green bean casserole ever made weighed over 450 kg (1,000 lbs) that’s more than a grand piano!
