Default Runner beans

Good evening,

The runner beans are growing nicely; however I've got a number of them that
have grown too large and I haven't picked them because they'll almost
certainly be 'stringy'.

Is it best to remove them and throw them on the compost heap, or if I let
them grow can I eat the actual bean? - in the same way as you can eat whole
broad beans when they're very young or leave them to grow into actual beans?

Many thanks,


Andrew
