    Branston beans are way better in my opinion. I stopped buying Heinz a while back and you can usually get a 4 pack of Branston for anything from £1/1.50.

    Yep, we've recently discovered Branston beans too -they're lovely. Sooo much better than Heinz!

    I suppose after condoms, vodka and cola, it was only a matter of time before he went into foodstuff.

    I add a chopped onion and grated Cheddar to beans and microwave it for 'cheesy beans.'

    The beans themselves seemed smaller and paler than normal, not the fat glossy haricot beans you expect from Heinz.

    I need to think of something new here...
  • Because they're cost cutting and reducing the amount of fertilizer in the crop as well as early "grabbing". The beans aren't as big, but also the ingredients are horrible

    Yeah, but the cola and vodka tasted vile. Cannot comment on the taste of the condoms:rotfl:

    I buy Tesco own brand (not value). They are very good IMO.

    Another vote for these I've been buying them for a few years now and we all prefer them over any other brand we've tried
