Welcome to the forum wolrik, what a strange way of finding the forum!! Hope you and the O.H. are feeling better today, and that you stick around on the forum, we are a friendly bunch (well, most of us are;) ) ;D ;D ;D
I should point out, just in case isn't clear to anyone, that what we were eating wasn't the green pods, but the seeds that grow once the pods are past their best for cooking, and which really ought to have been saved to plant next year.The culprits...

Same for me!Google sent me here from my search on "poisonous runner beans"Clearing out the old runner beans patch I collected a lot of over grown green pods with some nice looking fat jucy beans inside. Later that evening cooked in a nice tomato sauce they tasted fantastic and I ate a LOT. Now I expected a bit of wind but not two days of stomach upset and mad dashes to the toilet, oh, and I got the wind as well. I'm a pretty tough guy when it comes to food and eating strange things but these things had me beaten!I simmered them for half an hour with tomatoes and herbs. Perhaps they needed boiling for a week.The culprits...Be warned!
