  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Branston beans are superior to Heinz beans.

Fuck Heinz in general. They don't make things taste like actual things, just sweet crap.

Their tomato sauce is terrible. Tomatoes taste tangy, not sweet.

This is the first I've heard of Branston beans, but now I'm excited to try them when I'm back in England in a couple of weeks.

I was there for Christmas and bought a relatively huge jar of pickle before I remembered I wasn't going to be able to fly with it. A lot of pork pie was eaten that day.

The M&S own brand beans are the best I've had. I found Heinz to taste too artificially sweet.

[–] Schal330@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'll have to give them a go!
