Baked Beans

[Mito Man]

I first found out about them when I was like 10, they had staff all over the town and train station handing out free cans like you get with Coke in many places. We had a competition amongst friends to see who could collect the most and I eventually had a whole kitchen cupboard full

Switched to Branston many years ago after the ‘demise’ of HP Beans.

A teaspoon of HolyFuck is also an excellemt addition.

I sometimes add Worcestershire sauce, or some cheap corned beef. Plus hash browns and fried eggs. That’s your breakfast

I'll try them next time I buy beans. If they really are superior I expect @mik to reimburse me for all the extra money I've spent on Heinz, given that he could have raised this a long time ago.

See above. YK owes you.

They are loads better. Best addition to beans is a little bit of ground black pepper

[16vCento]

Sainsbury's own brand are even better than Branstons!

And their Ketchup is better than Heinz, and that's coming from someone who wouldn't entertain eating anything other than Heinz upto 2 years ago!

The Heinz stuff tastes so salty when you go back to it after the Sainsbury's stuff.

I thought you didn’t like anything with tomato Duncs? Or am I thinking a different friend?!?

If we’re talking ketchup...

Wilkin & Sons Ltd Tiptree Tomato Ketchup Is awesome...

[jamcg]

Ketchup I buy whatever is on offer/cheapest. Brown sauce it has to be chop

[dinny_g]

Hard to come by these days. Haven’t had any for ages...

No chance of Branston in Aus.

Also Heinz beans come in the wrong sized tin.
It's either a 300g tin or 555g.

Completely missing the sweet spot of the standard, normal 415g tin.

Heathens.

I’m pretty sure my local Morrisons has that in the little Irish food section they have.

Not me mate, I'm the one that doesn't like butter/eggs/cheese.

Woah Woah Woah, I'm not having this. Cheap ketchup is disgusting.

Love the food related threads on this forum

I eat baked beans so infrequently, that I don't think I can tell the difference between brands!

Excellent Zed - I’ll try Morrison’s for a bottle. In every Irish supermarket but my last batch was from Amazon.

Quite why a sauce made in Ireland since the 30's is called Yorkshire Relish is a mystery..

By the way, can't recall if your a veggie but if that Irish section has Clonakilty Irish Sausages you have to try them. you can thank me later.. Fry-up / sandwich only though - they're not for Sausages and Mash or Casserole type dinners...

I concur.

Sainsbury's ketchup is very good indeed.

I don’t eat meat but thanks anyway .

While we’re talking about sauces [mention]mik[/mention] have you ever been to Lupe Pintos? Excellent selection of chilli and hot sauces.

Also a great shop for interesting food in general.
