A member asked:
Never had edamame before. i ate about a dozen, the whole pod! seemed a little tough. discovered people really only eat bean inside. did i do harm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No harm: The edamame pod is tough and bland but contains nothing that is harmful. You will get a little fiber boost from this but as you have learned, we squeeze the beans out of the pod prior to eating them.
