I buy Green Giant green beans by the case! Canned and frozen veggies have been proven to be better for you than fresh because they usually retain their nutrients better (because they've been processed right after picking vs. travelling by truck and then sitting in the market, for example). I rinse my canned green beans, tho, because of the sodium content in canned veggies. They're great for when you're in a hurry or just too lazy/hungry to cook from raw.
