Q. What are the red beans used in the dish of Red Beans and Rice? Are they kidney beans?

A. There appear to be as many Red Beans & Rice recipes that call for kidney beans as for "red beans," but a red bean is actually a medium-sized variety of kidney bean. 

If you made Red Bans & Rice with the larger varieties of kidney beans, some people would complain.
