They later spread throughout China, Thailand, and other parts of Asia, becoming an important food crop due to their nutritional value, adaptability, and ease of cultivation.

The practice of sprouting mung beans has been used for centuries in Asian cuisine. Fresh mung bean sprouts became particularly popular in Chinese cooking, where they are commonly added to stir-fries, soups, and noodle dishes.
