Summary: Incorrect
Comment: I am english and am well used to english beans (ie: tomato sauce with no added sugar/molasses). I ordered these beans, said to be from England. They shipped from Texas. When I ate them, they tasted sweet. I check the nutrition and it is 151 calories per serving due to added sugar.
It seems to be an english product, just not the one that the above reviewers have been talking about, nor the one I am used to eating (90 calories a serving, 3 servings a can to 270 calories. No added sugar).

Summary: The real British baked beans staple food
Comment: Good vegan-friendly baked beans in a tomato-based, rather than brown sugar and molasses-based, sauce. Nicely spiced, relatively simple baked beans, the way they were meant to be. I haven't found a better price for them in America, than Amazon's subscription service by the case.
They're less sweet than other kinds, such as the Heinz Vegetarian Beans usually sold in America, and have about 35% fewer calories due to having less sugar. The can I have lists 90 calories per serving, 3 servings per can.
Strange "how to play with this food" suggestion: corrupt your basic beans by adding chunks of green pepper, onion, green olive with pimento and/or (yes, really) radish. The sauce for these beans works well with all of the above. I grew up, in the days before ramen, considering a small can of baked beans heated with sliced radishes mixed in, to be an excellent budget dinner. (Hey, if they work with tacos at Mexican restaurants, WHY NOT with beans?)
And yes, they do make a good breakfast, served over toast, perhaps with some sauteed mushroom slices. As I'm vegan, I've had to be creative at breakfast, when all my friends are eating egg and cheese dishes.
Important: Don't have these in your carry-on when going through an airport gate, no matter how handy of a quick snack they seem to be, with most even being packed with a pull-top lid. There has been no sadder sight to me than having to head to the gate with my cans of Heinz Beans sitting on top of the x-ray machine as "confiscated goods" because of the liquid they contain, ahead of a 20 hour trip. (!) That said, they work well for train journeys, because they taste nearly as good cold as they do warm, and unlike other kinds of canned beans, don't need to be rinsed before eating.

Summary: You'll be in beans heaven
Comment: I was in England not too long ago and decided to order the so-called "Full English Breakfast". I was immediately struck by the addition of beans to my breakfast plate. Assuming they would taste like beans from America, I was quickly surprised to find that they tasted far superior to our domestic beans. I knew then and there that the search was on and I had to find the source of these awesome beans and bring them stateside. It didn't take very many trips to World Market before I found these delightful British beans, and they are now a Sunday breakfast addition in my house. I heartily recommend them!!!!
