Green Beans actually derived its name from the young pods of the bean plants that are picked before the pods ripen or dry. Only then are they tender enough to be called “Green Beans” meaning “green” for the unripe fruit of the bean; many in fact are not green in color at all. The pod colors of “green beans” can be green, golden, purple, red, or streaked.
