ok where do baked beans come from ?
« on: October 18, 2006, 12:45:52 PM »
we regularly eat baked beans but unlike most food it's not apparent from where they come, it's strange really  :icon_scratch:.

maybe everyone knows and it's just me  :icon_scratch:

p.s. I do now know that they come from small plants ad are actually navy beans ut it's taken 40 years for me to find out

I thought they were Pinto Beans.

Probably from Mexico or somewhere like that.

Ssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Apparantly it's a BIG secret !!!!!!!


Top trivia
Today we make an incredible 1.5 million cans of Heinz Baked Beanz every day. The recipe is so valuable, and so unbelievably delicious, that we only allow four very special people to know the entire recipe at any one time.


If anyone does know, deny all knowledge !!!!!!!

Just incase they come looking for you  :shock:
