An American asked his British followers for advice on eating baked beans and these Brits were only too happy to help

If you’re feeling fancy there are two options.

Throw a slice of cheese on top
Throw a fried egg on top

I suppose you could do both but…you know…that’s just showing off.

Add some hot curry powder to the beans when heating them in a pan. Stir till ready. Don’t boil them – ever.

If not curry add some grated cheese just before eating. Good to go. By the way, Branston beans are the very best! Enjoy.

Freestyle your seasoning of the beans, Some hot sauce, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, English mustard all add a new dimension.

brown a 1/4 chopped onion in a pan with a little butter then add some chopped mild salami, like a danish or Hungarian) let that fry on a low heat for a minute or two, then add your beans and heat them through for another minute and serve on toast

Got to butter the toast, and you have to let the toast cool before you butter it so you get crispy toast.

And you eat it with a knife and fork.

Hi, you need to mash the beans with a fork to create a paste then spread this over the toast. Happy to help.

Lovely stuff. Greg was overwhelmed with gratitude.

Good Heavens!

This site is usually a cesspool of anonymous rage (I myself am often guilty!) and yet more than 2K of you have offered helpful information.

So nice to open my phone in the AM to something wholesome.

Thank you all!

You’ve restored my faith in humanity!
