    I don't think we have these in the states... and these "new" trials are usually overpriced.. until they see they are selling .. & then it creeps down..= sales volume drives the pricing. & it is a convenience food yes...? Ok, grab a regular can of beans take the time/effort to grate cheese or put slices of Cathedral cheese into it &..? bet it costs more if you're actually using the name brand cheese.? It's very odd... grocery pricing has gone "nutz" here in Pennsylvania, USA & then we get these crazy deals.. my local grocer, ACME is offering Maruchan dried Ramen noodle soup packs for 9 cents each.. that's $0.09/per .. ok, limit is 4 .. but they do this her to get you in the store.. the food chain is going insane...

    I don't think that it is these companies that are to blame, they wouldn't spend as much time and money coming up with these gimmicks if they didn't sell, and they must sell for one reason, because of how lazy some folks have become.
    Grated cheese in bags have been selling for years, and most of us know that if you bought a lump of cheese for the same price and grated it yourself, you would probably get three or four bags full.
    As you say Andy, like me, you would buy a tin of beans and grate some cheese with it, but some are just too lazy to use a grater. Bit like sliced carrots or mushrooms, diced and peeled veg etc.
    There is a line between 'convenient' and just pure laziness, and I think that more cross that line that what we may realize.

    • @fatandy
      @fatandy  Před 6 měsíci +1

    Hi Andy .. Tesco gave me 6 free cans of Branston baked beans with my delivery a few days ago.. I’m a Heinz boy but I have to admit because of prices going up.. I’m absolutely in favour of these branston beans .. it had more beans in the tin and to be honest weren’t that bad.. I would like you to try them out plus a few other items.. if you get a chance to go to Morrisons can you review these .. The best Gourmet collection 6 Cherrywood smoked Hotdogs.. I personally love them but I’d love to see what you think 👍👍 cheers mate

    For £1.80 for the amount of cheese why not just buy a cheap beans and add some cheese in to it.
    All this does is get more shelf space in the supermarket for the brand. There is no way any beans are worth more than even half that price.
    The tin was not even full. you may be getting 30g of cheese. but then you are not getting a full tin of beans. 390g the 42p bramwells or standard ones are 28p in aldi are 410g or 420g the aldi website seems to have both sizes which may mean there are going to reduce the tin size to keep the price.
    So Heinz are stealing 20g of bean weight off you as well as charging you £1.80 for a bloody baked bean pure and simple brand name pushing its weight about. treating the customer as Mugs, and ripping them off with it.
    I would not even bother ever buying Heinz cost far too much for what you get.
    You also miss off buying a cheap tin and adding cheese to amount you like, But by doing that you are increasing the weight of what you end up with.
