1. What are wax beans?

I've never heard that expression before.

Generally beans do have a lot of carbs, but not so much as rice or flour.

edit: if they come in a package, read the nutritional label and do this:

Total carb grams - fibre grams = "countable" Atkins carbs

[HEyHEY]

3. You might know them as Lima beans

8. Oh! Limas... carb counter at atkins.com

There is a carb counter at atkins.com. You can look up most common foods. The atkins books have a more extensive list if you're so inclined.

1/2 C serving of baby limas has 14.2 countable carb grams, according to them.

21.2 total carbs - 7 grams fibre = 14.2 countable carbs

They have carbs, of course, but relatively low amounts.

Always I like your posts. When I was young, Mother served "Wax Beans". They looked like green beans,but they tasted really bad. I will bet that no one wants them now. You should try,before you buy.
No. is my answer.

10. wax beans are not lima beans

Wax beans are simply yellow string beans. Like green beans only yellow.

Lima beans grow inside a pod.
