Beans are one of the most important food staples in Mexico, which is home to one-third of all the world’s bean varieties. Despite the availability of almost 50 kinds of beans, Mexicans are not consuming them nearly as much as they used to. This has threatened the production of Mexico’s native beans, which are now facing extinction.

Scarletts are big producers of large beans that you can eat early as a sweet spring green bean or let it mature and you get gorgeous purple and black mottled beans that are very good no matter how we make em.
very popular in the UK too.
Mexican food looks so hearty. I wished more Mexican food came to the Philippine during the galleon trade, smh.
Where can I get these beans/ seed I want to grow them in my garden so I try and help one of the staple crops of my culture. I want to help expand people’s knowledge on our traditions and bring back what has been forgotten for the future generations. If anyone has info please let me know. Muchas gracias 🙏😁🇲🇽🇺🇲
Very informative.
Me encanta este canal.
Saludos desde Honduras.
Beans, chocolate, avocados, chiles, corn(Maíz), the list goes on for what’s essential and important to a Mexican.
I hope all the varieties are protected. Not only Mexico, but the world need to protect for the future all the diversity of foods.

Yo sé que los mexicanos no lo consumimos a diario como otros latinos. No obstante, es esencial para nosotros. Casi, casi, como la tortilla y el chile.
Mexicanos, al ataque y a comer muchos frijolitos!
A los gorditos y gorditas, entrenle con todo!

Lo que engorda es el refresco!

Por cierto, trabajen con los negocios en EE.UU.
Acá también podemos salvar nuestros frijolitos!
No me importa que me llamen, frijolero!

Need to slow down. I can only read so fast. Talks like a Central America not Mexican Spanish.

Beans are SO important. They nourish us and they also nourish other plants by replenishing nitrogen in the soil. They really are the magical fruit.
We are the original vegetarians now it’s cool to be one. We did it out of survival.
And they are cheap as chips too! A bag of beans that feeds 8 is approximately $3!
