Washing removes sodium. It's good for health but not taste. But canning soaks them longer, which is better for digestion. I doubt startups want to spend the time to soak manually. There's a tradeoff.
Can sludge is nasty. And other bad stuff probably seeps into canned food. The FDA says canning is fine but I doubt it's totally healthful. But who wants to spend the time?
- jodrellblank 17y agoWho wants to spend the time preparing quality food when you could be rushing back to work to build a company to earn enough money that you can break out of the ordinary working life and spend time really enjoying your life. I guess what I'm pointing out is that you could skip all the work and enjoy your life right now by spending some time preparing some great food. ;)
- jackchristopher 17y agoYou're right. But I actually don't think beans (or white rice) are that healthy — they're fairly good. I left that out because I don't want to get into a "narrative war" on diet again. But I can discuss it later.
