In 2016 when I was a fresher in uni, one fateful night, I was almost killed by beans😭. Make you first wash, parboil and wash again before cooking.

Don't consume!
Price of beans is cheaper than price of treating cancer!


Hot water CAN'T wash off all the kerosene or chemicals. It's definitely NOT worth the cancer risk!
**Rule of thumb: Any food that has chemical smell, toss it! Instead don't eat.
That's all I am left to live on

Your own better self.
My beans they smell like raw cement and diesel.
Best way to cook it is to perboil the beans and let it cook for 10 minutes, then drain the water and wash with plenty of water before finally cooking.
I washed it like five times after parboiling and the smell no gree leave am

It's the cheap preservative they used in the store. It's supposed to prevent insects that eat the beans while in storage. What you should do is perboil the beans for 20min using a gas cooker or longer if using other means of heating, pour away all the water and add fresh clean water. You can do it twice If you like. All the smell will go.
I did it like five times and it's still the same

Ok. Here's Mama's tips for cooking beans mostly, including the one you bought.

1. Boil for 5 to 8 minutes.
2. Throw away the brown colored water.
3. Add fresh water, cook and enjoy 😉

Lastly, taking these steps will keep you and those who eat the beans from throwing gas up and down with reckless abandon wink

Sorry but what yhu are perceiving is actually not kerosene but sniper. Trust me, it's sniper!

Yhu will observe the beans will not attract wolves easily.

You better throw it away and live another day than taking a risk to save money and going down under forever. You will get back your money someday but your life? It's gone forever.
I have seen Nigerians preserving beans, stock fish and dry fish with sniper. Nigerians are very wicked n thoughtless when it comes to safety. They only care about profits.
That's my last hope !

Did you follow the guy drinking kerosene and see how he died? The thing with these things is, you won't see the effect maybe for several years, then when the effects start years later you won't even remember you used to eat kerosene beans!

I noticed chemical smells on potatoes 🥔
Re: My Beans Is Smelling Like There's Kerosene Inside— (Photo) by oalandAgents2: 5:50am On Jan 22
Soak in charcoal for 3 hours cook and check if the smell stops. Better to go to bed hungry than to risk your life.

Guys please help me before I mistakenly Eat poison.
I'm always careful of whatever goes inside of me because it will hardly come out.

I bought a mudu of Butter Beans yesterday, I'm cooking it right now. But after parboiling it, I perceive a kerosene-like smell oozing out of it. I don't know what this means.

I have stories of people who ate such, and died afterwards.

Someone please explain to me. Should I continue or throw it away?

Urgently please.
I think I observed same thing from the honey 🍯 beans 🫘 I bought from an aboki too. I even thought it was from the crayfish. Hmmmmm God abeg o🙏 😢
Re: My Beans Is Smelling Like There's Kerosene Inside— (Photo) by AmishaCandra: 7:42am On Jan 22
Lol but there's no scientific evidence that kerosene affected food causes cancer perhaps it's not being consumed just like that, it was washed and cooked, COOKED!!...

It's likely to be the preservation chemical used.Please wash properlly before boiling and you may wash after parboiling.It could be snipper.

It's a general knowledge that that traders preserve beans with chemicals. Are you hearing this for the first time?
No, I'm not hearing it for the first time.

So the beans was preserved with kerosene? The OP said it is smelling kerosene

It may not really be kerosine. The beans smells kerosine. The fact is that foreign thing or things have been mixed with beans. It may smell like kerosine and again kerosine might be mixed too. In my comment, I said perhaps. It means I am not sure.
