Thanks! :-)

I'd been wondering whether to try the pods, but as Nick said, feel it's rather a waste.

Now your comment that they're an early approximation to a sliced green bean has clinched it. As someone who is happy to sit down to an evening meal of a giant plate of broad beans with some brown bread and butter, I shall definitely be waiting for the beans!
