I call it petai or in English it might be stink bean because these beans have a special odor and many benefits. Did you know these vegetables are good for lowering blood pressure and also maintaining the kidneys?

Actually people call it the giant Edamame, but these vegetables only grow in certain areas.

@DianneN From the form it might be similar but from a taste completely different, from the smell one can know.

They look like the ones we have here that is so sour. We use it in simmering fish and the fishy taste and smell would not be so noticeable anymore. But that one, oh yes we have that which we call "sayote" or chayote . Is that what you have in the picture?

@SIMPLYD Yes, we have the same type of vegetables, but if we are in another country, of course we will be different in mentioning them.

Every country has a different name, and if you've ever heard of giant edamame! This is the right call for this vegetable.

Some people might not like this vegetable, but actually this vegetable is good for all kinds of diseases. And there are always restrictions for other vegetables.

@crazyhorseladycx Well, you know most children don't even like veggie. Each vegetable has a different composition, if we have diseases and diseases that will be even greater if we eat certain vegetables. But the vegetables that are drawn here are very unique, they can fight the bad bacteria.

Your welcome, maybe if it is exported it is afraid that the vegetables will rot while on the road.

@May2k8 It looks like what we call "Parwal" in Hindi. I don't like this vegetable. Is it parwal? ? I don't know what it is called in English.
