As a kid, I hated all beans especially those slippery garbanzos that would fly away every time I tried to stab one with my fork. Good riddance, I'd think as the sneaky bean would shoot off my plate. Now, I love them. Garbanzos are a staple in our diet. Torpedo, who asks for them regularly, calls them "Be-gone-zo beans." And with him around to gobble them up, they are!
P.S. I don't buy baby food anymore. I make "hummus" for Mermaid by dumping a can of garbanzo (or any bean) and veggies (fresh or canned) in the blender with some olive oil (remember young ones need 40% of their calories in digestible fats). She loves it and Torpedo has even started stealing bites from her bowl.

I love that name...be-gone-zo beans. It sounds like they'll
"be gone so" soon! (haha. I kill me.)
We like beans too!! All kinds of beans. They are so healthy for you. I am glad we are not the only ones that love them!
