*PRAISE* Branston Baked Beans

likelyfran

Yes I noticed quite a while ago that Heinz beans are all watery sauce and hardly any beans. What a swizz, I buy any brand but Heinz now - usually Branston.

Branston are still good, but they have themselves become watery and smaller beans in the last year. I had a tin from a year ago the other week and they were much better. All cans I've brought recently were very different.

Still, better than the watery flavourless Heinz. IMHO

Much better, the tomato sauce is actually reddish in colour for a start

Well what you could do is open the beans and pour into a saucepan/ or whatever you use to cook them when hes not around.

I've given in, I've bought 3 for £1 at Asda, but via a Luma credit card so that really makes it 96p

The heinz sauce is 'water' in comparison. I was surprised when I tried them a few years ago, well done Branston

The sauce stains any plastic tub they are stored /heated in so I do wonder if any colourant is added but they do taste good , however don't look for them in Tesco because they don't stock them any more - there was a thread about this on the 'Food shopping and groceries' thread.
