Are Baked Beans Healthy ?

Heinz beans are ok but slightly prefer the cheap supermarket beans myself, there isn't a lot in it though. Some meals I've bought out like an English breakfast claim to use Heinz beans and I think mostly they do. I don't really care about the difference though. Yes baked beans are not really healthy due to the salt and sugar added to the sauce, its a heavily processed food and should be in the bad camp. However just recently I had beans on toast which I haven't had for maybe 2 years and really enjoyed it. If I'm in a restaurant and fish and chips can either have peas, mushy peas or beans its always beans for me.

My family loves Heinz beans no one like Supermarkets own brands or other brand there so much difference in taste since they start selling No added sugar I start buying that I don’t know it’s healthy or not but with toast and top of jacket potato yum let’s see what others going to say good topic thanks enjoy rest of day everyone

I got some smaller cans at Tesco express 25p a can and it’s low in salt and sugar so they taste bland lol just had it with toast last week for lunch, a simple meal

I like HP or Branston the best, I’m with M1321 like them on a jacket spud or on toast both with cheese as a snack. I also like a tin of beans and sausages which I buy non branded. Heinz I’ve always found more sweet but all our taste buds are different.

I don’t think they’re unhealthy as there’s not any of the wrong type of fats (or so I think) it’s like anything eat in moderation

As they say, everything in moderation. Beans are a great source of fibre, but the baked beans are full of sugar. Also, too much could cause constipation

I only like Heinz beans, tried most of the others from different supermarkets, didn't like them, can't beat beans & toast for a quick cheap meal

I always have baked beans either on toast or with eggs, and i always put a good dollop of brown sauce over them , i think it compliments the flavour, not a great fan of tomato sauce unless over chips

I stocked up the other week on lots of Heinz products when Sainsbury’s had all Heinz at half price including snap pots of beans . Used to get the reduced sugar but tasteless compared to normal, mind you I’d rather the sauce and no beans

I don't do anything heinz don't any of their products and it's well over priced I buy Aldi own ones or Branson beans

No Baked Beans in our store cupboard! Non of my little family like them that much...

Daughter & I last had them on a Cooked Breakfast over a month ago in Portadown, Northern Ireland, partner detestes them!

If daughter & I do have Baked Beans we add other bits to them...

You've got me fancying some baked beans on toast now, don;t eat them very often but have a few cans in the store cupboard, Aldi own brand for me.

My fav are Tesco own brand baked beans. My OH likes a cooked breakfast on a Sunday, mre often than not I'll just have beans on toast.

I absolutely love baked beans we have them around twice a week. We find Heinz beans to runny these day's. Waitrose essential beans are really good

It’s full of sugar, which I’m not a fan of. I don’t mind the beans themselves - they don’t need much enhancing to be tasty

I do find baked beans easy to enhance, I've often put a tiny bit of curry sauce in to make them curry beans myself or maybe piri piri sauce etc. The tomato sauce is a great base sauce to enhance with something else. In the past I had a basic pizza base but no normal tomato passata or similar to put on it so used a tin of beans and then added more stuff to it. It actually worked quite well as an improvised pizza, the flavour was better than how it looked.

We love Heinz reduced sugar and salt beans . We can eat anything else we find them too sweet.
