anyone tried the new birds eye soya beans?

[bubbles4920]

have seen these advertised on tv, wondered what they were like and who sells them?

[Jinglepot]

I bought a bag of them in Tescos. Have to say I wasn't really impressed, but then, each to their own taste. You may well like them. ( I ended up dumping the remainder of mine!)

[bubbles4920]

so what do they taste of? they look like peas

[Jinglepot]

Bubbles, I just felt they had a non taste, maybe I was expecting too much or even thinking they'd be similar to peas. They weren't that expensive, so maybe if your tastebuds aren't as jaded as mine, you might give them a go. Certainly worth giving them a try anyway.
Sorry can't describe them better.

i agree, a non-taste. i even tried using half and half with frozen peas, but they spoilt the peas. i'm going to put the ones i have left in a chilli or something, just to use them up.

But, they are supposed to be good for you!?

[bubbles4920]

thanks all will give em a try at least as you say they are good for you even if they dont taste of anything else

Use them in a casserole as you would other beans such as butterbeans, pinto, borlotti etc.

I found them to be like mild broad beans, Personally liked them but doubt they are to everyones taste
