Serbo-Croat term or phrase: mahunjače
Korn fleks, instant pahuljice, mekinje i srodni proizvodi su proizvodi od žita, odnosno mahunjača i drugih prehrambenih zrna, koji pre upotrebe zahtevaju pripremu rehidrisanjem. Proizvode se specifičnim tehnološkim postupcima u toku kojih dolazi do termofizičkih i morfoloških promena, kao i povećanja volumena u odnosu na sirovinu.

legumes


Explanation:
Technically speaking, a legume is the fruit or seed of a leguminous plant, but it may also refer to the plant as a whole. Možda bi u ovom konkretnom primeru bilo bolje upotrebiti "legumes" da bi se jasno naznačilo da se radi o "seeds" pošto se i u nastavku teksta kaže "... i drugih prehrambenih zrna".

neutral  Dubravka Hrastovec: Tehnički gledano, Vi ste u pravu. :-) Legumes jesu plodovi. No s obzirom na padež u izvornoj rečenici, upravo stoga odlučih staviti biljke a ne plodove... A možda i nisam u pravu. ;-)
