https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_bean#Toxicity

It can be worse than a stomach ache.



"As few as five raw beans or a single undercooked kidney bean can cause severe nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pains."

That's nuts, though I don't understand why undercooked beans would be worse than raw beans, and not the other way round. Maybe the two claims are from different sources.


Your digestive system may not get at the raw bean as quickly or at all.
