The blind tasting test is the preferred method; otherwise, personal preferences may influence the results. There is no mention of Lidyl beans, which are the only ones we consume nowadays.

I'd give this 455 likes if I could (one for every bean in the can - probably).

I love beans but within an hour I'm full of wind with them.

Mrs F prefers Branson, I prefer Heinz, tried Lidl beans last week and they were almost as good and given the price difference worth it.

 

[Craggyjohn]

Heinz do some nice curried beans. The jalfrezi are good. Not seen any other brands that do them

At Christmas Heinz did beans with pigs in blankets and they were to die for (or perhaps as a result of) recommended if you can find them

I think you should stop eating them after 5 or 10 mins.
An hour is far too long.

Don't like Heinz. Branston are decent but so are Morrisons which I usually buy.

No mention of little sausages?? What kind of bean tasting was that?

 

[atypical_boro]

Can’t eat them. For some reason they have always absolutely repulsed me.

Was always a Heinz man but the cost is that much now it’s a joke.

Tesco are my go to now…. Less than half the price.

Also prefer their beans and sausages… the sausages are delicious

 

[RavsFan]

Heinz are watery tat, Branston all the way.

 

[HundredRoom]

Should be rated for farting quality. Both length of fart and smell.

If it’s just beans to go with a breakfast then it has to be Branston. If it’s beans and sausages then Sainsburys are the best, however strangely the plain baked beans Sainsburys do are far too watery and don’t taste anything like the ones in the beans and sausage tins

My 7 year old would agree with you there.

Also quite a high chance of an extra sausage in the Tesco ones.

 

[Quicksilvera]

I prefer homemade, cooked in a tasty passata with plenty of herbs and bacon.

 

[Lemmy_kilmister]

Branstons for me

Bramwells with some added Ketchup, you`d never know the difference you snobs (winky face emoji)

All beans need a splurdge of butter and a dollop of HP
