For years I ate Campbell's Baked Beans and never tried other brands; when I had Bush's Original Baked Beans at a tailgating party I was blown away by the taste and that the beans weren't mushy. These are great out of the can without heating them up but my family usually looks at me like I am a cavewoman when I eat them like that. It only takes about 90 seconds to heat them up in the microwave but you are going to want to make sure that you stir them every 30 seconds so they are evenly heated up. The original recipe is sweet but not so much so that it leaves you with a bad aftertaste; if you want to add things to it you can. My boys like cut up hot dogs or sausage in it but you are going to need to pre-cook any meat you plan on adding to the beans. I stock up on these when they are on sale because I know that in the winter months everyone will eat them with a sandwich and salad for lunch or a quick dinner. The 28 ounce cans are the only size I buy because once I open it, it's usually gone in less than two days. The suggested portion is a half a cup; I can eat that when I am standing at the counter making a sandwich or waiting for something to heat up in the microwave. Each serving contains 140 calories, 1 gram of fat, 550 milligrams of sodium, 29 grams of carbohydrates (5 grams dietary fiber) and 6 grams of protein. Even though beans are good for you and the fiber helps with digestion, there's a lot of added sugar to this so you need to watch how much you are eating at each sitting.

This is a delicious and simple meal that is able to serve 2 from this large can, and it´s so easy to prepare that all that is needed is 2 minutes in the microwave. The addition of the bacon adds the meaty edge that makes it a meal for me. The price is very inexpensive as well. It´s a treat that´s worth it.

Sure tastes like moms cooking. The brown sugar adds a great taste. They only need to add more bacon. Each can seems to only has one piece of bacon. It would be nice to have every spoonfull, a bite of bacon. They call these bake beans. This is a great addition to any meal. Serve them hot or cold either way the taste is so good. What's also great is that there are assortment of many flavors. Once you start eating them you never want to quit. On the can it also offers many different ways you can cook them. Add them to your favorite burrito, taco. So many ways you can serve them and the taste will just make the rest of your food taste even greater. If you want some mouth watering side dish bush's bake beans is the one. Try these and the many other mouth watering tasty other flavors they provide. Bet you won't even think twice on eating seconds. Baked beans are not just for picnics anymore, or hot dogs. Good, and tasty. I love this product.

Bush's Original Baked Beans with brown sugar and bacon are one of my children's favorite side dishes when we grill hamburgers. I have prepared them my warming them straight out of the can, or by sitring in fried hamburger and baking them with additional bacon over the top. The kids go crazy for them!

These baked beans have a great taste! I love the added brown sugar and bacon. There is however only a few small pieces of bacon in these. The amount you get in a can is good for the price. These are great for a bbq if you don't have time to make homemade beans. All you do is heat them up or you could eat them cold.

We always have a few cans of Bush's around the house, They are great as a side and can serve serve as a quick meal in a pinch. They are sweet and savory with brown sugar as well as bacon. Even our most finicky eater will eat these with no complaints and ask for seconds. Overall, they are a delicious way to get more fiber and protein in your family's diet.

Even though we're heading into winter over here in California, these bean remind me of labor day. These are really good. They have a very nice sweet brown sugar taste with a hint of bacon. So good. Great with a hot dog, link, beef brisket, pulled pork, or whatever else comes off of the grill!

I like to jazz up my bush's baked beans.  I can't give out my secrets. lol but i can say that a little extra onion and bell pepper goes a long way and my favorite thing to eat them with is ofcourse bbq.  I have to have them.  My family loves what I do to them.  I like them without adding anything but that's just something I like to do.  Because I like to cook.  This is besides the point but the commercials are so funny.  When I was in college my friends were amazed that I could do so much to Bush's original baked beans and they wanted me to cook them all the time.  If I had to choose to boil my own beans or buy Bush's baked beans precooked in a can I would choose Bush's baked beans.  They have a hint of sweetness about them and they're cooked perfectly. Not too soft and not too hard like some other canned baked beans.  They taste fresh.  I like that.  So when someone asks me what kind of side dish should I make with my barbeque whether it be burgers or chicken, steak, ribs, or brisket I would say get Bush's original baked beans.

I loaded up on these when they were on sale at the supermarket. They were just OK. What was really bad was the maple syrup baked beans. I use pure maple syrup all the time, and these did not taste anything like maple syrup. It seemed more like a strong butterscotch taste. I do not like butterscotch. It ruined an otherwise awesome BBQ. Stick with B&M.

I've tried several different brands of baked beans and home made baked beans. I prefer Bush's over all of them. They taste good, my kids like them and eat them which is a small miracle if you knew my kids! They're a quick and easy addition to BBQ's, potlucks, picnics, a side dish for dinner, or as a snack (the single serving cans). I won't buy anything but Bush's Baked Beans.
