<John Cottingham's archives on fava beans are very interesting. I <wonder if there is anyone out there currently eating fava beans and <if so, what your experiences have been. Favorable? In what way? <Where do you obtain the fava beans? How do you prepare them? How <large a portion do you have? Thanks in advance. Ann Gibbons Ann: our local natural foods store stopped carrying FAVA beans because so few people bought them, but is ordering a few packages for me to try. I too would welcome information on "how to's". Emily Jackson, [log in to unmask]
