Wow....looking at their website I see LOTS that I've never heard of. I'd like to try them all.
I use Bushes also. They're always on sale. And I'm always throwing things into the pot of beans to doctor it, just because I can.
Used to love B&M Baked beans with B&M Brown Bread. Haven't seen either in this area - don't know if they make the canned brown bread any more. (Add: I just Googled it and yes they do still have the brown bread. It's rated 4.6 stars on Amazon, and I'd give it 5 stars myself. I might have to break down and order some.)
Here it's usually the various flavors of Bush's that are most available. We just don't do canned beans much. When I have beans, they're usually in chili or soup or with rice.
We like B&M here, too, along with some of the Bush's varieties. B&M used to be our first choice but, since they quit packaging them in the brown glass bean pot-shaped jars, they don't seem to be the same. I suspect they changed the recipe somewhere along the way. We don't eat that many commercially-produced canned goods so we don't have them too often.
Heat up the brown bread in the oven. Use butter on a slice and it melts right into the bread. To die for!
I admit to sometimes for lunch just opening a can of beans. I don't heat them. Just into a bowl and add a squeeze of Heinz ketchup and S&P with a piece of toast.
The beans I had today (now) where Stokley's w/tomato sauce.
I certainly have had better.
Do you have a favorite to recommend?
So far the best I've eaten are these:Canned Beans: Bush's Best | Bush’s Beans
Bush's has a gazillion varieties and some aren't sweet at all....
