A bushel of dried beans packed in a stout wooden crate, a reliable store of protein and sustenance. A steward lays in beans for the winter larder, and a caravan provisioner trades them as road fare; boiled with water and salt, they feed a company for days. Beans keep for years in a dry cellar, becoming harder and slower to soften with age but never truly spoiling.
