Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 I'm not Carol but I can answer that question and the answer is...sorry, no. regular black beans have many more carbs than soybeans. I can eat a moderate amount of soybeans - of any color, smile - without too much effect on my BGs. But other beans do raise it. Of course, YMMV. You could run your own tests, which would probably be the best thing to do anyway. Vicki << Carol, Would that hold true for any black beans? At any rate, I love black beans!! I will try them in chili... I've been hungry for chili for days now. I'm going to have to make it :-) I like cheese on top. Mmmmmmmm....
