It is soybeans. I get it in the freezer section, I like the shelled version.
Edamame is a green vegetable more commonly known as a soybean, harvested at the peak of ripening right before it reaches the "hardening" time. The word Edamame means "Beans on Branches," and it grows in clusters on bushy branches. To retain the freshness and its natural flavor, it is parboiled and quick-frozen. In East Asia, the soybean has been used for over two thousand years as a major source of protein. Edamame is consumed as a snack, a vegetable dish, used in soups or processed into sweets. As a snack, the pods are lightly boiled in salted water, and then the seeds are squeezed directly from the pods into the mouth with the fingers.

Truthfully, and you're all probably going to laugh at me. I've NEVER tried soy in any form. Is it at all good? I keep hearing its disgusting and good but I'm scared to try it. I'm not a big fan of beans to begin with, I just assumed I wouldn't like this kind either

Soybeans are not like tofu at all. I love the taste of then, they do have a flavor unlike tofu. And they are not like other beans. All I can say is give them a try, you might love 'em.
