bean

Non-PRO English Other Other
Our "bean snacks" are exceptional. We have many popular items such as "Polippy" (spicy nuts) – with a burst of pleasant aroma and flavor, and "Umiajisen" (assorted seafood and nuts) - born from the highest quality materials. Exquisite taste that make the most of the original flavor of beans.

In the above, they produce snacks which use green peas, in that case bean snacks can be used?

Thank you for your help.

@Sue-my 'born from' should be: 'made of' or 'made with'.

legume snack

I Googled this a bit and found several websites listing "legume snacks." Typically, the ingredients are peas, chickpeas, peanuts, or other legumes. This is the first time I hear the phrase (hence my medium confidence level), but it seems to be common enough and more accurate than "bean."

agree philgoddard : "Beans" would be wrong if they're made from peas. But this covers both peas and nuts.
