Advantages: Good for you, lots of fibre.

Disadvantages: Flatulence - well, arguably a disadvantage ..

I am, and always have been, a bit of a fan of baked beans despite the rather unfortunate connotations that beans associate with chronic flatulence. (Blazing Saddles comes to mind.)

In terms of 'own brand' products (see: my review on gravy granules, below) I have no problem with this kind of marketing. Having worked for a well-know manufacturer of frozen foods some years ago, I could not help but notice how the company switched from producing their own stuff to a supermarket own brand, including Waitrose AND Sainsbury's AND Tesco's by the way, and that the products were exactly the same. The range of foodstuffs I saw this process taking place with included puff pastry, cream cakes, fish fingers, and so on. From then on, I resolved to buy the cheaper own brand stuff, and not been disappointed much since.

Tesco's Value baked beans are fine; they do the job on a couple of slices of toast, and are great when you melt some cheese in the pan with them. Hmm, lovely, I could almost rush off and gobble some up now ... so, don't be put off, especially in these austere recessionary days - cheaper does NOT necessarily mean nastier.

Summary: Gerrem down yer neck!!!
