What it is

Green beans are the immature pods of various cultivars of the common bean plant (*Phaseolus vulgaris*). They are typically grown in warm climates and harvested when the pods are young and tender. After harvesting, they may be sold fresh, frozen, or canned.

Why it's used

Green beans are primarily used as a vegetable side dish, either plain or prepared with seasonings and sauces. Manufacturers include them in canned vegetables, frozen vegetable mixes, and soups for their nutritional value and familiar flavor.

Health notes

Green beans are a source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They are not subject to specific FDA regulations as a food additive. International bodies like the WHO/FAO Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated many food ingredients, but green beans as a whole food are not typically evaluated in the same way as isolated additives. They are generally considered a healthy part of a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Green beans are not a major allergen. They are not derived from milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, or sesame. They do not contain gluten.
