"Purple" Green Beans

Hollygrove Market had "purple" beans for sale the other day and I could not turn down a chance to give them a shot. My little stack cost a whopping 31 cents! They were a deep purple color, but for all other intents and purposes looked like a regular green bean.
 
I snipped off the scraggly ends
 
 
 The insides were a green color and shortly after being plopped into the boiling water the skins were turning green as well
 
 
 Not going to lie--I was kind of disappointed that my "purple" beans pretty much looked like green beans after being cooked. They tasted like a regular green bean too. Interesting
