    Someone on here told me that there was a failure of the bean harvest, hence raised prices/less in tin. I think it's a bit of a rip off that they don't put 'drained weight' on beans like they do on some tinned veg. The HP beans are acceptable but lots of juice but I've been trying various in recent weeks and all seem to be much the same.

    If you read the ingredients list, it will tell you what %age is beans and what tomato. :confused:

    The last tin of Heinz beans I bought had an awful lot of sauce and definitely not so many beans. Anyone else noticed or maybe it was just a one-off with that particular can?

    I have found this with both Heinz and HP lately, the first third of the tin is just sauce.

    By far the best beans are Branston, packed full of beans to the very top and currently on offer in Tesco at £1.19 for 4 tins.
