No wonder the Brits like THEIR baked beans - if the pot is in the beans as well as the beans are in the pot!

With a side of anything in particular? It's part of breakfast, right?
Still seems odd - but maybe I'll have to try it sometime. |
Re: help! cant find baked beans
You can get Heinz baked beans in Walmart, their labelled under vegetarian beans but have the heinz label on them. There exactly the same as the english version and cost 74c a tin.

Help me understand - beans on toast? As in ... ladeled on toast? It doesn't sound appealing - but maybe that's simply because I haven't tried it!
add cheese on top, chili sauce, whatever...but good crusty bread helps make it nice...and works well with a fry up on the side to get your heart complaining :D |

What's the HP Sauce travesty?
Kathy -- the Brits eat everything on toast.... yeah, it's just beans ladled onto toast. Cheese on toast (an open-faced grilled cheese if you will) is popular as is marmite, Branston pickle.... although that leads me to ask: if you don't have square bread (eg a decent loaf is usually NOT square) how do you toast it? You'd either need a less wimpy toaster than we usually have in an American kitchen, or you'd toast it in the oven, I suppose, or over a gas burner. |
Re: help! cant find baked beans
In Atlanta, there's about 5 places that sell Heinz Baked beans. My local Indian shop here sells me a case of 24 cans for about $25...
AS a backup, publix sell heinz Vegetarian beans. Same as the brit ones except over cooked !! |

I believe it's the fact that HP sauce is no longer made in the UK and is made in Cloggieland instead. :p
