Title: It's official.....Heinz beans are third rate.
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 28 March 2019, 12:02:59
In this blind test the soggy tasteless and most expensive best seller limped home a poor third.

Take note and save money, TB. :y

I don't think it has that much to do with value or even taste. It's a shopping/eating habit that people have grown up with. I mentioned the other day that there were no heinz beans in Asda, so I bought cross and blackwell. No one noticed that I'd bought something different.

And, I would suggest, in a blind taste test, Jaime would come a cropper.

But he only drives it to work, or slows it down by hitching a mobile home to it.  ;D

It's the old circle of life, isn't it? Buy a car to drive to work. Get a pay rise, buy a better car to drive to work, and so on.

She's tried that in the past. I'm talking the likes of Cross and Blackwell, as obviously even the cat cat tell the difference with a Tesco Value bean.  She's yet to get one passed me ;)

I don't ask for much, but when I have a bean, it has to be proper Beanz.  If its any other bean, I'll have peas instead. Birdseye, obviously.

Probably.  But I've always liked Beanz. Grandma used to do Beanz, which were far better than the NAAFI tosh mum used to get, mainly because we were poor.

So I still trust my taste buds more than a current bun reader.

Consider Naga to be like a cleanser.  Much like gay wine in between munching different cheeses.

It resets the pallet.
