  • The Heinz factory in Wigan, England, is the largest baked bean factory in the world. The factory was opened in 1959 and currently produces over 3 million cans each day. The beans are shipped from North America and rehydrated once they arrive at the factory. They are blended with a secret mixture of spices and tomato sauce. The ingredients are steamed inside of the can.
    Over 2.5 million cans of Heinz Beanz are sold every day in the UK, making it one of the most popular foods in the country.

    Its a great British delicacy, especially if you are a UK student - Beans on toast.
    We had a lot of US students in our halls of residence, and they thought they sounded revolting. Until we made beans on toast for them, they could not believe how good they were, and it was a new staple for them.
    The other Student food in the Uni cafe is cheese and chips.....that is another meal that all students love.

    I'm from Pittsburgh, the birthplace of the H. J. Heinz company and I still consider Heinz Beanz to be a purely British food. I would love to get my hands on a real, authentic, made in UK can but they're actually a little pricey online.

      Aw, come on . I just found a can on Amazon for $1.89. Even the larger can, maybe $3 or less. Live a little! haha ;)

    ironic thing is here in the states we can't get beans like that anymore, all of the us brands are loaded with tons of sugar and not much else.
