The beet has a long history of cultivation stretching back to the second millennium BC. The plant was probably domesticated somewhere along the Mediterranean, whence it was later spread to Babylonia by the 8th century BC and as far east as China by 850 AD. Available evidence, such as that provided by Aristotle and Theophrastus, suggests the leafy varieties of the beet were grown primarily for most of its history, though these lost much of their popularity much later following the introduction of spinach. The beet became highly commercially important in 19th century Europe following the development of the sugar beet in Germany and the discovery that sucrose could be extracted from them, providing an alternative to tropical sugar cane. It remains a widely cultivated commercial crop for producing table sugar.

While different species of bean, the Mung bean and Green Bean plants look very similar. The green bean is harvested in the unripe stage when the pod is young and sweet, and mung beans are usually not harvested until till their pods have turned rather papery in color and texture and shucked for their beans.

Green beans are also know as string beans, snap beans, French beans, Haricots verts, and can be from several varieties of beans including the yardlong bean, the hyacinth bean, the winged bean, and especially the common bean.

The mung bean (also known as mungbean, mung, green gram, or golden gram) is native to the Indian subcontinent. High in protein, it is a staple of the Asian diet.

Whole mung beans are generally prepared from dried beans by boiling until they are soft and made in porridge, soups or stews as well as desserts throughout Asia. Bean paste is used to make ice cream of fillings for mooncakes or dumplings.

Germinated mung beans area eaten as bean sprouts, commonly stir fried or added to spring rolls, in the west they are eaten raw in salads.

I started landscaping on a history sim where 1/3 of the prims are reserved for tall ships and texture lag can sink a ship. Conserving prims, using low prim items, allows for more role play props to be rezzed. And using high quality, quick loading low lag textures make for convincing detail. Cara Mia Gardens is dedicated to providing the best low prim, low lag landscaping on the grid. After all, a prim saved is a prim earned.
