What's a good excuse not to eat my lima beans? Tim from Wakefield, MA would rather eat broken glass. Tim, the small, flat edible seeds of the bush bean plant known as the *Phaseolus lunatus* can be very nutritious. However, the staff at Supertectonics understands your plight. Organic electricity, that which is developed in organic structures, either animal or vegetable, should serve as a viable excuse. Simply relay to the person or persons who serve you the food in question, the sad case of Luther Fancy, the only known human to have been electrocuted by chewing "lima beans". Incidentally, this excuse should serve nicely for any unwanted food. Enjoy your meal, Tim!
