First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how non-vegetarian Americans decide to include beans, peas, and lentils (called pulses) in their meals. Researchers will track which foods people pick first and how often they choose pulses when building a meal. The goal is to understand food choices and attitudes toward pulses, without testing any treatment or medication.
