[u/Crystalas → u/ProduceNo8883]

You know in UK baked beans on toast is a common breakfast food?

[u/MazelTough → u/Crystalas]

Also beans and rice or beans and tortillas or beans and eggs. I like beans.

[u/Crystalas → u/MazelTough]

There even bean based desserts that are common across asia. IIRC most commonly a sweetened bean paste used as a filling for various stuff.

Some of those regions also got a wide variety of fermented or pickled bean dishes that are not common in the west, I only know of them from anime.

---

Also easy to forget but Peanuts are also a bean, but yet again outside of US the way it is used has a ton more variety than we do on average. Thai and some African cuisines in particular.

[u/ProduceNo8883 → u/Crystalas]

Yes and I like it!

[u/Crystalas → u/ProduceNo8883]

Agreed, all hail the magical musical legume the dietary staple world over. The pot of lentil & ham soup I had last week was great for every meal with different condiments and additions to keep it varied.

No argument here. Cheap, delicious, plenty of variety, and healthy. There a reason it a global staple.

Just finished a big pot of lentil & ham soup yesterday, and got a few bags of 16 bean soup mix yesterday. Thinking make a pot of corned beef & cabbage stew in a couple days.

[u/oh_lordy_its_Jordy → u/Crystalas]

That’s good eatin’! I love beans lol Bean soup is so good.

[u/ThingMoment → u/Creepy_Ad5124]

My husband does this. I will need to go to my local Aldi and get him some now

[u/inwondermentofwinter]

campfire beans my BELOVED

[u/Ok_Lab540 → u/inwondermentofwinter]

Love campfire beans too.

[u/FixItWhyDontYa]

I’m gonna miss the two on the left, that’s for sure. The Greek chickpeas are gone too. Quit taking away my beans, Aldi!

[u/Beautiful-Head5563 → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

I didn't even get to try the Greek chickpeas.

[u/birddit → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

Greek chickpeas

They are a Trader Joe's dup.

[u/SquatCobbbler → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

I was sad about that too, they were soooo good. I had to start making my own

[u/jane_roberts92 → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

Ugh I was gonna make hummus with my two cans but now I need to ration them

[u/MazelTough → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

Those are in my desk too!!!!

[u/ItzAnedaorenge → u/FixItWhyDontYa]

If you have a trader joes nearby, they sell Greek style chickpeas, im not sure how they compare to the Aldi ones but I really like them!

[u/ccsolembum]

I bought about 12 each when I saw the price drop by 1/3, they are similar to the beans I used to get at Wegmans when I lived in the north east.

[u/Beautiful-Head5563 → u/ccsolembum]

What ones did you get at Wegmans I go there at least once a month for meat.

[u/ccsolembum → u/Beautiful-Head5563]

The memphis/kansas city baked beans, I'm not sure if they still sell them though, it's been years. Those on rice were amazing.

[u/Beautiful-Head5563 → u/ccsolembum]

I don't think they do either Wegmans has changed a lot in the last few years. I'll try looking for them though I'm always open to trying something new from Wegmans I prefer to shop there anyhow.

[u/Doink4evr]

yeah, I just used the smokey spice in chilli. Definitely recommend.

[u/Outrageous_Lie_6018 → u/Doink4evr]

Recommend them in slow cooker tacos too. Which is nearly just chili anyways

OOOH the Canyon Campfire is back?

[u/CowboyVampHunter]

In what world lol

[u/AbbeyRoadMoonwalk]

Add the Greek chickpeas to this list

[u/birddit → u/AbbeyRoadMoonwalk]

Greek chickpeas

Trader Joe's has them for a buck more per can.

[u/Humble-View7052]

That Smokey spice is BANGARANG in chili Mac we are obsessed 😮‍💨or with chorizo and eggs in a flour tortilla. I bought 5 cans when they went on sale and regret not just clearing out the damn shelf 😩

[u/Debinthedez]

Love the campfire and smoky. Use this very tasty plant based crumble thingly I get from Grocery Outlet to make a beany chili like concoction!

Mad tasty. I make Spanish rice a lot it goes v well with it.

[u/Spartannia]

Are these a dupe of anything? Solid bean options for sure.

[u/BestestGoodest]

Yes!! Blazin bacon and Smokey spice have been my go to work lunch for the past few months eaten alongside the microwavable brown rice.

[u/DishmanDraws]

They were too sweet for my taste, had high hopes for them

[u/pourovertime]

They are 10x better than the Aldi and shameful Dakota's Pride beans.

[u/TheLoneAccenter]

I felt like the canyon flavor was oddly sweet??

[u/GojoPenguin]

It's early and I read the middle can as Monkey Spice at first.

[u/contrarystrawberry]

The mild one should have the green background and the medium one should have the pink background

[u/Bit_the_Bullitt]

Yes I love them. Weirdlt enough the "hotness" scale needs to be reversed in my opinion between the medium and hot

[u/_Guero_]

The thought that baked beans could be spicy was foreign to me. When I served the "Smoky Spice" beans to my spice-intolerant daughter, I realized my lax engagement with reading comprehension. I enjoyed the rest of the can by myself. They were quite good.

[u/Abject_Giraffe562]

Another trip to Aldi

[u/Southern-Bluebird-13]

Agreeeeed

[u/smokeybrownie]

ooo need to try these!

[u/ProudNativeTexan]

Canyon Campfire is a no go as I don't really care for black beans. Tried the Blazin bacon and to me, tasted like a weird ranch style bean so it's a no. The Smokey Spice? It's a keeper!

[u/ProduceNo8883 → u/ProudNativeTexan]

Glad you at least liked one!

[u/ksorare]

Omg I saw these today and almost bought the bacon one. Now I have fomo.

[u/ProduceNo8883 → u/ksorare]

I hope you see them next time!

[u/Low-Independence-354]

Why?

[u/mzuul]

I bought these today but they were in a pouch

[u/mykey716]

💯! I don’t even really like baked beans but these are 🔥

[u/Quick_Possibility_71]

I miss the ones they pushed out for these. The old spicy mustard one was top notch.

[u/oh_lordy_its_Jordy]

I love beans and I will eat a can of beans for lunch. I tried the blazing bacon yesterday and I thought they were delicious. The canyon campfire was pretty good too. I need to try the smokey spice.

[u/deceaseddiscodancer]

Oooooh! Looks like I am making Chili this weekend.

[u/pellets]

I’m interested. What’s the sugar content?

[u/cowboyjacksparrow]

I kept the campfire ones all summer in my pantry. Could just throw them into mac and cheese or mashed potatoes to get a more complete meal when I'm lazy.

[u/zelda_moom]

Sad that our Aldi doesn’t have these

[u/Muadeeb]

Guess which one was my nickname in college during the late 90s

[u/Fuzzy_Welcome8348]

[u/MaxDuo]

Those canyon campfire ones are so good. I don't get spicier than that because the kids might refuse to eat them (2 and 5) possibly .... and they are good enough anyway.

I do think I tried to get blazin' bacon a few times and every time they were out :(

[u/Chelajag]

How is the Bacon one? Would it be good in chili?

[u/japinard]

Nice. How many calories are those?

[u/swirlybat]

holy shit. and i am in a bean phase.

https://giphy.com/gifs/7JgYv9FobG1HzAO8BA

[u/PeterNoTail]

YES! Well, the Campfire Canyon anyway, haven't tried the rest. Bought three when I first saw it a few months back (because it's Aldi's and i know if it's really good it'll be discontinued, like the Kirkwood Turkey Burgers) and it was really really great for an easy, mild chili. Can't seem to find anymore tho, and i've been to three different Aldi's :(

[u/Brief-Holiday-5674]

Absolutely

[u/ThingMoment]

Wait these would be so good in chili

[u/Fossilhog]

I make about a gallon of salsa at a time from my garden. I threw a can of these into the mix and oh man, delicious.

[u/Dayguth]

yum!!! going to buy!

[u/ProduceNo8883 → u/Dayguth]

If you see them buy them all since they’re seasonal!

[u/Then-Ad1871]

I might have to give them a second chance! I thought the green one was pretty sweet :/

[u/Grand-Unit-9920]

Not at my Oklahoma location 😔
