Green Beans

About
Green beans are a variety of snap beans, the most popular edible-pod beans. One common name for snap beans is "string beans". Until the late 19th-century, the pods had tough strings along their sides that had to be removed before cooking. Almost all modern-day snap beans are stringless at harvest.
