Topic: Do you eat many chickpeas?

I eat enormous amounts of chickpeas daily. Recent studies show that chickpeas are incredibly healthy, and also they prevent colon cancer, and can actually reverse it! Do you eat chickpeas daily?Homestar !RUNNERV7vk joined in and replied with this 15 years ago, 2 minutes later[^] [v] #23,504

I like hummus. I have had chickpeas before but do not eat them with any sense of regularity. Must they be whole chickpeas or does hummus count?

Controversy
In October 2008 the Association of Lebanese Industrialists petitioned to the Lebanese ministry of Economy to request protected status from the European Commission for hummus as a uniquely Lebanese food, similar to the Protected Geographical Status rights held over regional food items by various European Union countries. Fadi Abboud (president of the Lebanese Industrialists Association), stated that "Israelis have usurped several Lebanese and oriental products". According to Abboud, Lebanon exported the first hummus dish in 1959. As a response, food critic Janna Gur wrote: "The success of certain brands of Israeli hummus abroad may have been what brought about Abboud's anger", leading him to claim that Israel has been "stealing" their country's national dishes, like hummus, falafel, tabbouleh and baba ghanouj. In response, Shooky Galili, an Israeli journalist specialising in food who writes a blog dedicated to hummus, said that "trying to make a copyright claim over hummus is like claiming for the rights to bread or wine. Hummus is a centuries old Arab dish—nobody owns it, it belongs to the region." As of late 2009, the Lebanese Industrialists Association was still "preparing documents and proof" to support its claim.

To the extent that it keeps you alive.
It also hardens your arteries.

That won't prevent you from oxidizing.
I don't know. I just never end up eating chickpeas any more.

Antioxidants do protect you from oxidation, though. I plan to live until about 200, because I eat unusually high amounts of powerful antioxidants.

onvm you were right on that point.
That won't help you live until 200, though.
Think about how much pollution you breathe in. That's gotta shorten your life span.
Also, there have to have been people who have lived on a diet of wihch a large portion consisted of chickpeas.
Have yet to hear of anyone who lived until 200, though.
