Red Kidney Beans

[Tilly2]

I have some left over kidney beans in the fridge, in a dish covered with cling flim.

Will they be ok to put into a chilli, tonight? How long do they last? They smell ok. No smell at all, in fact.

[Tilly2]

Bump the beans!

[jennyjoan]

tilly did you answer your own question

[tonyav]

Put e'm in Yilly, you'll know by morning if they were ok ;-)

[Tilly2]

That's not a good way to find out, Yont.

No JJ, I was bumping the question, not dumping the beans.

[Cloverjo]

They'll be fine.

[tonyav]

There you go, Cloverjo say's they'll be fine. Put e'm in.

[Tilly2]

Cloverjo, you seem very sure.I hope you're right. :-)

[Cloverjo]

If they don't smell and there's nothing nasty growing on them, I'm sure they'll be ok.

They'll be fine. I love chilli, enjoy.

[Tilly2]

Oh, now I don't know what to do.......?

They don't have a smell at all and they look fine but don't you have to be extra careful with kidney beans?

[Mamyalynne]

Unless I've missed something you haven't said how long they have been in the fridge.

[Tilly2]

I forgot that important point, Mamya. :-(

Since Monday.

[tonyav]

Sling them, Yilly.

[Sam1960]

Bin....... :(

[Mamyalynne]

Thought it odd you hadn't. Yes , bin.

[Tilly2]

They are only there because I forgot to throw them out the next day.

Thanks, everyone. I thought the bin might be the best place for them.

Will the birds eat them, do you think?

I have some chickpeas, they will have to do.

I use chick peas in chilli all the time, alongside kidney beans, lovely!
You can expect a Zephyr or something stronger the next day though!

[Tilly2]

I'll watch out for that, Master. Thank you for the gale warning.

[tonyav]

or something stronger the next day though!


A Sirocco, mastercraft ?.
