Sorry, but the thought of eating this sounds disgusting. Have you tried it?

I ate the pinto bean cake. I swear you'd never know it had pinto beans in it! It tasted like a spice cake and was very, very good. I think I'll make this one and take it to work but not tell anybody what it is until afterwards.

In Hong Kong, they eat a sweet bean soup for desert.

I tried it, but wasn't overly fond of it. (When they eat sweets, they are very VERY sweet). :yep:
