What it is

Whole green beans are the entire, immature pods of the common bean plant (Phaseolus vulgaris). They are harvested when young and tender, before the seeds inside have fully developed. Green beans are typically eaten whole, including the edible pod and seeds.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use whole green beans as a vegetable ingredient in frozen meals, canned vegetables, and side dishes. They provide a source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, adding texture and nutritional value to food products.

Health notes

Whole green beans are a natural food and are not subject to FDA additive regulations. They are a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin K, vitamin C, and folate. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have not specifically evaluated whole green beans as a food additive, as they are a whole food. Consuming them as part of a balanced diet is generally considered healthy.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Green beans are legumes, but they are not among the FDA's nine major food allergens, nor are they a source of gluten.
