Bush's Zero Sugar Added Baked Beans?





I saw a vide about Bush's baked beans. They showed a zero added sugar version of their baked beans. I searched and found it. It was sold at some grocery stores. I only saw it in one size at some but had two sizes in others. One doesn't have to eat it all at once but divide it among different meals. The price was not bad; it was vey reasonable.

While on a cruise, one of their restaurants had an English breakfast as an option. It included baked beans (the rest was two small hash browns, eggs cooked your way, toast and sautéed mushrooms - wish I had take a photo of it to show it here). They served in a small cup (the whole breakfast was small and what I would call 'perfect portion' - ideal for a diabetic) about 1/2 cup in size. I tried to duplicate it at home. Since this was a zero sugar added I did not have to worry as much if it was regular baked beans (which - depending on the flavor - could have a lot of sugar in it). The only thing I was missing was the hash browns but I couldn't find ones that small (more liked flatten tator tots than hash browns but still vey good). 

I thought it was really good. I didn't realize it was zero sugar added. I plan on having it again. I think everyone will enjoy it (assuming everyone likes baked beans - those who don't like baked beans probably won't like it but that is a preference and has - IMO - nothing to do with it being zero sugar added).
