The magical broth

MYTH: A can of beans may be good for you, but you may as well drain of the broth in which the little fellas swim, right?

TRUTH: Whether you favor black, kidney or great Northern don't drain those beans. Get the most dietary benefit from a can of beans by using the salty water--it's simply brimming with fiber. And when you crank open a can of soup, why not spill half of a can of beans into the pot, too?
