processed legumes Explanation: I am sure the 'family' comprising vegetables like chick-peas, lentils, beans, etc, is named < legumes >, just like 'legumi' in Italian. The packaged goods, (in glass pots, tins, tetrapack, etc. ) are probably more than simply boiled (lessati), hence processed -which probably accounts for any type of preserving. see 2nd link below. see ref. below.

boiled beans Explanation: Even though it may not sound natural, I think it is important to stick close to the original. After all, tinned beans could also include dried beans, which is something different from boiled beans. http://ec.europa.eu/health/ph_projects/2002/monitoring/fp_mo... |

boiled legumes Explanation: In my view that's exactly what that should be, though it may not "sound right" (???). The trouble with the alternatives: 1) Unlike London County Council they are not necessarily canned: lots of them are now packaged in Tetrapack bricks and, lately – just in sealed recyclable plastic bags. Some of them are boiled and then frozen to boot, certainly not canned either. 2) not all of them are beans: there are all kinds of peas too... and I don't know what legume is lentil, except that apparently it's neither bean nor pea 3)Such handles as pre-cooked, ready-to-eat, etc., are no good for they may be baked, fried, stewed with other stuff, or dried or frozen fresh respectively. So, sound awkward as it may, "boiled ligumes" seems to be the only safe answer. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2012-11-27 11:11:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "cooked beans and peas" then!!! No pulses, though! That, in popular semantics, would bring us dangerously close to smoked/boiled pig shanks and the like (good with peas, btw!). If they ain't gonna sue... Otherwise, "thermically pre-treated leguminous foodstuffs" :). I know about the LCC: that's why I said it was canned. So is the GLC is it not? Together with Ken Livingston? Recently I saw Boris Johnson -The Mayor, on David Letterman: loved him; ten temes weirder than Ken the Canned! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 hrs (2012-11-27 11:42:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Politics! Never crossed my mind! However, now that you mentioned it, I think you'right: better cease and desist. To paraphrase another politician, gentlemen let us keep to our... legumes! |
