‘Get in my belly’ fans rave as Heinz launches new flavour with a festive-twist in time for Christmas
BAKED beans bosses have got Christmas all wrapped up in a tin.
The clever swines at Heinz are knocking out limited edition Beanz Pigs in Blankets for the festive period.
The product comes with Christmas seasoning.
Heinz say of the pork bangers wrapped in bacon: “Jingle All the Way.
“Need proof that Santa got your wish list? Well here it is! Beanz, pigs in blankets, and Christmas seasoning all in one can.
“No need to wait for the big day. Crack them open for a taste of Christmas on your toast.”
A 400g tin is £1.50 from Sainsbury’s.
The same sized can is also available via Heinz’s website where they are selling for £2.50 each.
A full can contains 426 calories and 18.4 grams of fat.
Food site Snack Reviews drooled: “If you’re like most of us, baked beans are a staple for a quick and satisfying lunch or dinner.
“But who would have thought about mixing baked beans with Christmas?
“Well, Heinz has, and they’ve just launched their new Limited Edition Beanz and Pigs in Blankets with Christmas seasoning.
“It’s a festive twist that brings together two much-loved foods: classic Heinz Baked Beanz and the seasonal favourite, pigs in blankets that we spotted in Sainsbury’s today.
“The addition of Christmas seasoning to the traditional combo of baked beans and pigs in blankets enhances this simple dish into something surprisingly festive.
“The seasoning gives it that holiday flair, making it an unexpectedly different option for a quick meal on a cold December evening.
“Imagine the comforting taste of Heinz Beanz, with tender, flavourful sausages wrapped in bacon, all mixed with a blend of festive spices.
“It’s a treat that takes a well-loved dish and gives it a festive makeover, making it perfect for getting into the Christmas spirit without much effort.”
One fan said on social media yesterday: “Get in my belly. Christmas just came early.”
Another simply wrote: “Yum.”
While a Aussie fan added: “Send some to Australia please.”
And someone tagged in their pal and wrote: “Something you would enjoy girl.”
Not everyone was convinced though, with one person posting: “They sound awful! Everyone knows the pigs in blankets need to be nice and crispy. Not soggy after being soaked in beans for months.”
If you’re a fan of pigs in blankets, you might also want to try M&S‘ version which have gone bling this year.
Forget half a rasher per sausage, this year Markies’ pigs are double wrapped making them a salty, savoury delight.
