[Ramonna30222]

Years ago when I lived in Washington, D.C., members of the Nation of Islam (which is not to say all Muslims) used to sell bean pies on the sidewalks. I always assumed it was a fund-raising activity and had no religious (or political, for that matter) significance. At least none of the men selling the pies tried to convert me to Islam. That’s probably where the idea came from that Muslims like bean pies. The pies were very good, although I had to be convinced to try one the first time. To me, they taste kind of like sweet potato pies, but with a different texture, kind of sweet but not overly sweet. Definitely something to try, if you have never tasted one. Lately, I have seen them in a Lebanese deli near my house, but I don’t know whether the owners are Muslim.
