There's an even more practical reason: culinary delight. Beans with
tomato paste, cumin and chili powder are delicious, but beans with
tomato paste, cumin, chili powder and fresh corn or polenta are even
better. Lentil soup with dill, tarragon and garlic is good, but the
same soup with a little barley thrown in is better. Nuts are a natural
in granola. Tahini is sesame seeds plus chickpeas, a terrific
combination. Yogurt is great with vegetables. Etc.
