Are you pulling my legume?  :P  I never eat crunchy beans.  Sometimes i
cook them more to the chewy end of the spectrum, but today i intend to
cook them "melt in your mouth" soft, and mash half of them up against
the side of the pot.

I do generally sort/pick through them too.  I've found rocks and dirt
clods, which would be bad for mastication.
