Keep in mind that Ashkinazic and Sefardi Jews lived on opposite sides of the world. Since eating leavened bread has very big punishments, the Jews are extremely careful not to eat leavened bread on Passover. Because of the high severity of this decree, safeguards were put up to make sure that leavened bread isn't eaten, and what is being referred to in the question if that Ashkinazic Jews don't eat legumes for this precise reason. Sefardim, on the other hand, do eat them because the decree that was made later on not to eat legumes didn't apply to them (and many of them didn't even know about it). The decree was made on the other side of the world.
