Tins of Beans recommendations
Why the need for a recommendation - or we again going to be treated to a TV shot of baby pilots eating them from the tin
I'lll get my coat
PS Wife's ex husband, on request, brought some UK baked beans out to us in France - cheeky sod brought " low fat, low sugar" (ie no flavour beans!)

When I went through Cranwell I was told that baked beans weren't an officers vegetable......
Mind you, strictly speaking baked beans are legumes....!!
We were also still being told at Cranwell at that time to buy a trilby, for "town wear".....

Oh dear, Biggus! I thought that it was fairly apparent that my tongue was firmly in my cheek - I certainly meant no offence .....
Curiously enough, you've just reminded me of the raised eyebrows in a naval mess when an RAF officer started eating potato crisps out of a packet rather than those in the silver salver on the bar.
Incidentally, it would be considered unthinkable for a "submarine breakfast" not to include baked beans!

Which was rather hypocritical considering they were served at Breakfast in CHOM.
That was a test - didn't you spot the Cdt Wg spies taking notes?
Normally the oiks would have been spotted and weeded out long before they crossed the road to College Hall, but standards dropped when Henlow closed and RAFC went comprehensive...
I hope no-one is taking this seriously?

MODBeans are produced in the United States as this reduces production costs by 30%, and then they are shipped to the UK and opened, after which the sauce is drained and replaced with a British specification sauce. They are then shipped back to the US for repackaging, after which they are delivered to the consumer in the UK.
The consumer may notice fewer beans per can than other brands, this is due to the need to cover traansport costs.
Hope this helps.
