See what all the fuss is about—a new bean on the block!

No, it’s not a newly discovered legume. In fact, archaeologists traced the lupini bean back to the days of the Egyptian Pharaohs, over two thousand years BCE. From the southern Mediterranean Basin to Zoës Kitchen, the lupini is the key ingredient in the Live Med Salad available now from the new, unique Mediterranean-inspired menu.
