Because of this thread I had some edamame. I used to eat it all the time pre surgery but hadnt had any post. Good news, everything went great! I still love it and my body still loves it.

I don't eat the shell. Just the little Beans on the inside. I use my teeth-- like with an artichoke. I like the way they make them at a sushi place. Enjoy!

Oh yes, sometimes you can find them at the grocery store in the frozen section. Directions are on the package.

Never eat the shell myself. Too tough! I shell them and eat the pods as is. You can buy a yummy edamame salad from Sam's Club. costco might also have a similar salad for sale.

I never eat the shell either. I buy the frozen steam fresh bags then microwave them and sprinkle a little sea salt and bam, yummy Protein snack. I have also bought an edamame salad from the grocery store but I actually like the steam fresh ones better.

The only kind I've had I'd the dried salted ones
