Snobby Recipes

So I'm trying to be healthy with my eating and have been looking at recipes from Whole Foods. I found an appealing recipe but was confused by a few of the ingredients. I hate it when I have to find obscure ingredients for recipes, especially in grocery stores like the Coconut Grove Publix. Anyways, so this recipe calls for tamari and haricot verts. I don't know what either of these are. So I of course wikipedia them. Turns out tamari = soy sauce and haricot verts = green beans. What the heck? Why not call a spade a spade? It made me slightly angry, but I am making the recipe tonight, so hopefully it will still be tasty despite its elitist use of ingredients.
