Unless I can buy 4 tins for a quid, or 6 tins for £1.50, I avoid the tasteless soggy mush like the plague. :)

Heinz beans are soggy shite.
Whilst I accept they are not the caviar that a Lord like you lives on, if you're going to eat a bean, it has to be Beanz. They are by far the best baked beans by some margin.  And given that I singlehandedly keep Heinz going, I do consider myself a bean connoisseur

I usually buy at around 30-40p per can, unless a supermarket has an offer on.

Much, much better than the Branson (slightly dearer) and supermarket brands (cheaper), that I wouldn't even give to a foodbank.

There are standard Beanz. Beanz with those nasty sausages in (but go well on a baked spud, or on toast). Beanz with the chilli beans in.  And that's it. End of.

Wrong. Standard beans are just Beanz.  I care not for the recipe, as long as my Beanz Meanz Heinz.

Butter beans are good to put into stews and curries etc. On their own they have a slightly soapy taste. Didn,t used to like them until SWMBO taught the error of my ways. :D

We used to have butterbeans (the proper, soaked overnight ones) with boiled bacon and new potatoes. I seem to remember enjoying them, but that was probably over 50 years ago. Our family was quite poor, and us kids ate everything that was put in front of us.
