Green beans, string beans or snap beans are the unripe fruit and protective pods of various cultivars of the common bean. Technically beans are neither fruit nor a vegetable. Beans are classified as legumes, a type of plant that produces edible fruits and seeds. The long thin pod is the fruit of the legume while the small round ball inside is the seed.
