“These beans are totally different in texture and deliciousness to mushy tinned beans. Buying in bulk from the company means they're always a lovely accompaniment to other dishes or made into a satisfying flavourful stand alone dish with other ingredients such as artichoke hearts and prawns.”
“I'm very sorry I don't like the taste, I opened a jar last night to see what they looked like, I'd planned a bean based dinner for tonight... but I was not impressed at all, the bean is bigger and softer than the blue tinned ones (I don't like those, I prefer Branston beans) the sauce was not what I expected, I've made my own beans years ago, and thought that these would replicate that taste.
I will eat them as I don't waste food, and maybe heated they'll improve on taste, I don't know what else to say, I'm disappointed as they are so costly, I might have to wash the sauce off and use the beans in a salad.
I love the concept, just don't love the actuality. JanB”
Thank you so much for sharing this. It sounds like the flavour just was not quite right for you, which is completely fair! Could you let us know which flavout it was? That will help us make sure we pass on any useful feedback to the team.
“I've been buying BB for years. Great business ethics. The beans are next level and totally delicious...you can eat straight from the jar! Nothing like canned beans. No going back”
“They've done what they set out to do - made me obsessed with beans! I now send them as gifts: the last box was to my grandson a week before he ran the London Marathon., full of beans.”
“I love these products - so tasty, so easy to use and I love the sustainable mindset of the business.
I always thought that beans in general didn't agree with me, but it turns out it's the processing/ preparation that they go through that makes the difference, and i have no problems from these at all!”
“Started the Zoe programme a few years ago which switched me to eating more beans and pulses. I have to say these are the best beans, chick peas, carlin peas black beans, I have had them all! Could not go back to other now. Worth the price and try to stock up when special offers are available. Highly reccomend.”
“Having seen a number of chefs rave about the beans and also having received the cookbook for Christmas, I was interested to try them. I was a little put off by the price but having now tried them, I can say they are definitely worth every penny. The texture is so different to other beans I’ve tried, so juicy and tender, the taste of the beans and the broth is delicious and the jars are huge. I am now raving about them to everyone and can’t wait to try more of the recipes. Very highly recommended”
“Glad we found these Beans we now have subscriptions for Queen Chick peas and butter beans. Loved the introductory pack of baked beans enjoy hot or cold I love them and usually don't like Baked Beans. Still to cook with Carlin peas. Love Full of beans cookbook. Obsessed with cheesy marmite beans this from an unloved fan of Marmite.”
“LOVED THE BEANS VERY TASTY IN A GOOD VARIETY OF SAUCES. PRICE AND DELIVERY WERE GOOD. I LIKE THE IDEA OF THE BEANS IN JARS RATHER THAN IN TINS AND I WILL CERTAINLY BUY AGAIN IN THE FUTURE TO TRY OUT BEANS I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF.”
