> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by TeaElle \* > **Not only do I have beans, I’m eating beans right now. Black beans with brown rice and carrots and red peppers and garlic and onions and cheeeeeeeeeeese. Oh yeah.** I have a leftover bit of almost the same recipe in the fridge right now. No cheese, but I sliced some smoked sausage into it. And, **ruadh** , there’s no need to eat the food. Just go to a Chinese shop and buy the dry beans. If you have room (even a balcony), you could even save a few and grow your own. ---

In any case, I didn’t say “impossible”, just “damn hard”, which basically means “I can’t buy them at Tesco’s”. It was the same when I lived in London, but if it’s got easier since then, would you bring me over a few tins? 😉 ---
