gimme that sweet sweet lore of yours

Lore: A body of knowledge on a subject held by a particular group, typically passed from person to person by word of mouth.

That’s quite a fitting I suppose, I do know a lot about beans afterall. Though I do suppose you’re asking for a bean fact so:

Pre-Black Death, laborers weren’t accustomed to wheat bread, our bread was usually made of beans or of other corn. During the Black Death, as the elite suffered & the laborers died off, there was an increased demand for labor. Our wages rose and we were able to demand better food than bread, oatmeal, thin ale, and little meat. It was amazing! We were able to eat beef and mutton almost if not more often than bacon and fresh instead of salted fish! The rich complained and whined Constantly about how “greedy” we were to demand for fresh flesh and bread made of wheat instead of bread made of beans. Don’t get me wrong, I love beans. But you get sick of a food if you eat it nearly every day for roughly 135 years.
