    People that eat cold beans are also the type of people that leave the teabag in the cup

    People who make tea with a teabag in a cup have no sense of taste anyway.

    Left on the supermarket shelf. Baked beans are disgusting.

    With some nice sausages and mashed spuds. ;)

    What type of beans are we talking about?I love Kidney beans and often make a Kidney bean and pineapple curry. But never cold.

    With some coffee.. In the desert.. beside a campfire.. Cowboys must have had some digestive systems.

    Some hot sauce, sprinkle some shredded cheese and heat up in the microwave for 1:45.
    Put on toast or breakfast potatoes.
    Usually a cup or coffee or tea to wash it down.

    Piping hot.

    Anyone who eats or buys sugar free beans should have all their fingers and toes cut off, then boiled to death.

    Cheese melted on bread with Worcestershire sauce and then the beans dumped on top with a dollop of HP sauce for dipping.

    Cold beans are disgusting. Hot beans are bland average food that you throw into nice food. Nothing great about beans

    You are both wrong.

    I like beans cold/slightly warm.

    Only way to eat them. :pac:

    I work with a guy that makes tea then drinks it with the teabag still in the cup, sometimes I want to get the cup and just launch it at his face


  • Posts: 3,637 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    The best way to eat cold beans is straight from the can, while sitting on the couch, drunk, wearing a pair of underpants on your head because you’re really that much of an idiot.

    I never leave the teabag in the cup but I might start. Sounds convenient and makes it stronger.

    Soaks up milk and then smells in the bin, best avoided.

    In a beef stew. Brilliant for thickening up the overall texture.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,138 ✭✭✭Gregor Samsa


    Always cold. Pour them out of the tin onto the plate. I’ve brought my kids up this way too. It’s the only way. My wife can’t understand it.

    Years ago, when I was about 10, my folks brought us on a holiday to Achill. We stopped in a cafe for lunch. I ordered sausage, chips and beans but asked for the beans cold. The waitress stopped for a second and said “we don’t have cold beans, but we can let them cool down for you if you want”.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 456 ✭✭Tired Gardener


    Baked beans should be eaten cold straight from the tin once they have had copious amounts of ground black pepper added.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,931 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Bachelors, Heinz are too watery.

    Heated with black pepper & salt, & mashed.

    I'm always so disappointed when I get a tin with hardly any sauce in it.
    Because I mash my beans, if there's not enough sauce, I'll need to add a drop of water to them & that's obviously going to take away from the flavour.

    Can't ever order beans in a cafe because they use the spoon that all the sauce draines out of. Its just a big blob of bean. Terrible image.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,456 ✭✭✭garrettod


    Hot, poured across a couple of slices of warm toast, with loads of melted butter and a few splashes of Worcester sauce over them.

    Thanks,

    G.

    Refried, with rice and salsa


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,452 ✭✭✭gogo


    I like them where they are, in a tin, in the back of the press and never appearing on a plate belonging to me

    Tesco Taco Mixed Beans
    Big pinch sea salt
    Squeeze of HP sauce
    2tsp BBQ seasoning

    Put in microwave for 3 mins and serve with cous cous or rice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,091 ✭✭✭Rubberchikken


    I'll eat them cold from the tin while pouring them into the saucepan.

    And I never leave a tea bag in my cup:) most times I use a teapot;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 105 ✭✭John Frank Wilson


    I like my beans in a tin, unopened on the shop's shelf.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,805 ✭✭✭Badly Drunk Boy


    (This is something from my childhood that keeps coming up again and again in my therapy sessions.)


    When I was a child and my mother would make beans on toast, she would always butter the toast. Every time, I would tell her that I hate butter on my toast when there were beans involved. The sauce that the beans are in is sufficient. Every time, she'd still do it.

    "It's less hassle for you if you don't put the butter on the toast, and saves a bit of butter in our poverty-ridden existence! PLEASE, WOMAN, NO BUTTER!!!" sez I.

    And still she buttered my toast...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,138 ✭✭✭Gregor Samsa


    I was the same with the butter as a kid. Strictly beans on raw toast. At some point in adulthood I relented though, and would have butter on it now. However, with jam or marmalade on bread or toast I’m still very strictly no butter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 317 ✭✭Vittu


    Heated in a pot with sliced/crushed garlic added. Delish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭Greyfox


    Milk ruins tea.

    Tea without milk is like drinking paint

    Beans are the devils puke
