I looked on the list on gliderkids, but these weren't listed. Can they eat these or not?

Beans I would guess in moderation since they cause gas. . . Thats what the list say about broccoli.

Anyway I guess maybe only like a portion of a bean. They would just fill up on them instead of their main protein source.

I probably should not encourage this but my girls have had pieces of pinto beans as treats but nothing more.

Are they canned beans? If so, they are full of sodium. At the same time, they are a good source of protein. I dont think Ive ever heard of anyone feeding gliders beans..but like most other foods...moderation is the key.

No dry beans, I was going to cook them for my husband and I for tomorrow night for red beans and rice and I wanted to leave a few unseasoned for them.
You think it would be ok to give them each a few?

The only beans I've heard of anyone feeding gliders are green beans. But, like Rita said, in moderation I'm sure one or two will be okay.

My girls love beans, I've given them kidney beans a few times mixed in with their other veggies.
Beans are a great source of protein but I wouldn't make them a regular every night thing.

I wasn't thinking as an everynight thing, just a treat since I will be cooking them anyway. Thanks so much! I'll give them 2/3 tomorrow when I cook them and let yall know if they like them. =))

My boys love lima beans and green beans. I always feed beans with veggies and such, I've never tried them alone.
Kidney beans?
