No Karl-I knew Legume was another word for Bean--I just did not realise that Peanut was a bean.

I guess Marian is right too, as I think beans etc are often called Pulses.

I knew lentils & barley were pulses but that's about it. Imagine a nut being a bean!!!!

Beans on toast will now be known as Nuts on toast! :roll: :lol:
