    If youre on a budget, a pound of dried beans will make the equivalent of 4 large cans of canned beans at about one quarter the cost, especially if soaked overnight and cooked in a crockpot. They can be frozen or pressure canned for later use. Much healthier than canned beans as there's no chemicals or preservatives and you control the amount of salt, sugar, spices or other ingredients. So, whether you make baked beans, refried beans, ranch beans, chili beans or plain beans you can easily make and can or freeze them yourself. Just say no to canned beans.

    A lie of deceat canned beans hv less nutrients because of higher heat of 450 degrees in the process destroy all live enzymes and 80 percent of the trace minerals , when you cook at home they do not reach that high temperature 😑

    Oh, no! Big Bean has gotten to Mashed!

    Meh, I've never heard anyone serious propagate these "myths" except maybe the Paleo freaks… but they're full of *bleep*, not myths. Do you know what Paleolithic people really ate? Any damn thing they could find.
