So, You Wanna Know About Edamame?

Edamame (ed-ah-MAH-may) are little green soybeans that come in pods like peas. To get their firm & satisfying texture, they're typically harvested when 80 to 90% mature.

Edamame's popularity is soaring for several reasons. They're tasty and convenient as snacks, side vegetables, and as a protein source for main meals. And they're naturally nutritious: rich in protein and anti-oxidants, low fat, low carb, no cholesterol, gluten free, and much more. Oh yeah, it's really fun to pop them out of the pod right into your mouth!

What Makes Edamame So Special?

These little green soybeans are now being touted as the Wonder Veggie® because of their cutting edge health benefits in fighting cancer and heart disease. Health researchers have long noted that Asian countries, where soy foods have been a staple for centuries, show lower rates of heart disease, cancer, and severe menopausal symptoms.
