They don’t contain one of the 20 essential amino acids. Namely methionine. Nuts, seeds, legumes, and grains contain it though, so you can pair beans with your favorite one of those to have a complete protein.
And hempseed. Gruel is a complete protein, it’s just cheap so most people haven’t ever even tried it. It’s kinda like a weird tasting grits or porridge
Beans and bread exclusively sounds like a promising Malnutrition speed run any% attempt.
Nah, beans are crazy nutritious
But do not include all the nutrients your body needs for a long and healthy life.
There sure are worse options than beans though.
I want you,
I need you,
But there ain’t no way I’m ever gonna live on you,
Now don’t be sad, ^don’t ^be ^sad
No, cause 19 of 20 ain’t bad.
They don’t? Are you sure?
I feel like beans are one of the few foods that do include all the nutrients you need.
It’s like them and quinoa.

Tofu is just lacking in methionine, not completely devoid of it, but you should have another source.
No but rice contains the rest.
Interesting, what does rice have that beans don’t?
I’ve always understood beans to be one of the very few foods that include everything.
Fat, protein, carbs, all the vitamins
Essential amino acids, I believe. That’s why the rice is key, it has those the beans are lacking.
Ah, you’re right.
Wow, so quinoa is the remaining champion.
So long, beans. Pretty close though.
Beans and rice are pretty great together. And you can freeze rice (something I just learned recently)

Looks like it’s doable
Just buy a cheap vitamin-c supplement
