excuse my naivete towards lentils, but what does it mean that the they are "picked over?"
this is what i think: lentils can have "extras" in them. as in, things that are not lentils. i'm not sure what they really are, but they look like small, little pebbles or something.
that's my guess. sometimes i "pick" them over, and sometimes i don't. but i really do love lentils and should use them more!
