Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Posted April 7, 2008 The following food was just brought to my attention during a discussion of essential fats and I have never heard of it. It is Mungo Beans, which has a separate listing in the USDA SR 20 database (and in CRON-O-Meter) from Mung beans. The amount of Omega 3s per 1 cup cooked is 603 mgs, which is fairly high for the world of beans. Regular mung beans, have only 18 mgs per cup. A search on the internet resulted in little if any info on them. Has anyone heard of them or know anything about them. Thanks Jeff Quote
Guest guest Posted April 13, 2008 Report Posted April 13, 2008 Hi, I suggest that you search this group's site. Just put in " mungo beans " in its search engine, and a number of earlier postings containing mungo beans will be shown. --- In , Novick <jnovickrd@...> wrote: > > The following food was just brought to my attention during a > discussion of essential fats and I have never heard of it. > > It is Mungo Beans, which has a separate listing in the USDA SR 20 > database (and in CRON-O-Meter) from Mung beans.
