me when I see a chickpea

Pythagoras and his friends believed beans, specifically fava beans, contained the souls of the dead. Not sure about chick peas but suggest contemporary fear may reflect an ancient taboo dating back to Pythagoras, so show some respect.

It's in the DSM.

Tahini can be used in many recipes!. For instance a tahini-avocado salad dressing or sauce to drizzle over veggies or mix into a grain/quinoa bowl. A cookie ingredient.... Google "recipes with tahini as an ingredient"

I use tahini to make granola - works a treat. Also lovely with banana on toast

I buy Japanese sesame paste that is very similar to tahini. They solve the oil separation problem by packing it in a sturdy but flexible plastic sac which they advise you to knead often. That might eliminate your anxiety? Works for cats.

Kewpie roasted sesame dressing 🤌🏻

The whole point of having them preserved in a can is to remove the anxiety. Relax, friend. The chickpeas will be ready when YOU are.

Like many other data points in the NYT, this is crazy BS.

Hummus fatigue is still real right? Right?

it wasn't 30 seconds ago, now i'm sweating all over my body

You’re erasing my legume trauma

chickpeas are very comforting, I think

Okay, do I get to tell that joke now about what the difference is between a chickpea and a garbanzo bean? . . . (answer: I’ve never had a garbanzo bean on my face)

Why do you hate lentils so much?

Don’t laugh, I’m on several antipeapressants for my chickpea anxiety.

But with your help we can make it real!

That's pretty much the one anxiety I don't have.

Ottolenghi has interesting remarks about hummus wars in Jerusalem. Both Palestinians and Israelis claim it is their dish and that their recipe is the only one that is any good. Or something like that. Of course, the Israelis as very late-comers in Jerusalem cannot with in a fair fight.

You’re just making yourself a target lol 🌱

What a load of garbanzo.

Yes, but does your nanny know the difference between quinoa and couscous? www.nytimes.com/2013/11/14/f...

I thought that was only for the US farmers of chickpeas..

I mean any anxiety is real it’s just nonsense as is a lot of anxiety

Warrants the question: Anyone there with stocks in the Chickpea industry?

Who's been hoarding cans of chickpeas?

The difference between a garbanzo bean and a chickpea is that I haven't heard of a garbanzo beaning on Trump.

You've obviously never been a chickpea.

'to use up all those cans be...' ...fore? Before what??? I think I have chickpea anxiety *now*.

So one of those chickpea council creeps got to you, too, eh?

I was in a supermarket, and found a gentleman having an episode. He was armed with a can of chickpeas and threatening to throw them at anyone who got too close unless he was taken to see Michael Jackson at the neverland ranch. I had chickpea anxiety that day let me tell you.

Read this the first time as “bad-tasting bees” and was mildly concerned.

Clearly, that topic was recommended by @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

Then why am I curled up in the fetal position on the floor of my kitchen right now?

*rocking back and forth* The chickpeas can't hurt you they're not real The chickpeas can't hurt you they're not real The chickpeas can't hurt you they're not real

there's an entire subculture of dudes who've lost their minds about soy but this is the bean/legume drama they want to hype? Because soy looks are actually funny. And dangerous sometimes but mostly funny

You're just a terrorist antiflava!

bah, hummus

Anyone can have pea anxiety

Just say you hate them. No shame in that but claim anxiety?!

you’re not supposed to call it that anymore, I’m gonna have to report you to hr

I wasn't even aware there was anxiety about chickpeas. I'm not even sure what a chickpea IS.

@dennycarter.bsky.social is this true?!

Anxiety? Chick, peas

You've got your finger on the pulse. (So evidently are fortunate enough not to suffer from chickpea anxiety).

Get a blender and make some fucking hummus, for goodness sake

Another shill for Big Chickpea.

Now Lima Bean anxiety on the other hand...

I love the recipes on NYT Cooking and they have awesome ones with chickpeas. I used to have tofu anxiety but never chickpeas.

My only chickpea anxiety is that I think there may not be any cans left in the pantry. Luckily I know that I have a bag of dried beans!

to say nothing of cici and gram (who might be people, I don't actually know)
