Aged cheeses (hard cheeses- cheddar, parmesan, all the good stuff) are huge gout offenders. Some sites say that ALL cheeses are bad, but I have read (and found out on my own) that processed cheeses like American or Velveeta are not so bad. It has to do with protein breakdown- anything fermented or aged should be avoided as a rule.
I personally have had no probs with beans- being from Texas I eat ALOT of beans, refried and pot cooked pintos (sometimes you have to be careful because of the meatfats used in the making of the beans).
What has amazed me recently is the discovery that most cruciferous vegetables are gout offenders (cabbage, brussels sprouts, etc).
I guess the only way to really be safe from a gout attack is eat only cereals with pure water. (Yeah- THAT will happen)

I have not found any trigger from Fresh Peas or Fresh Beans. Over the last3 months, I have been carrying out a trial on all foods, documenting whathas been eaten per meal per day.
Interestingly I have a reaction (Trigger) to Cheese, (Aged/Mature). I canpretty much guarantee that I will have a reaction following concerted use ofthe cheese board.
To date I have found nothing else (Seafood inc.) that I react to. Howeverall sufferers are totally different.
Must go, not drank any water for the last 15 mins…..
