You can also put baked beans in the sandwiches as well
Eeew!! Good lord. Why do the British insist on abusing baked beans? I remember when I was a student in London and was just weirded out by the way the Brits ate beans.

Just caught your post as I am culling recipes off this thread -- you had quite a reaction to that!

you had quite a reaction to that!

Apparently it's not just me. When my Norwegian friend and I were shopping at Sam's Club, she asked what I would do w/the baked beans. All I could think of was, "Dump them out of the can and put them in the microwave?" Curious about American habits, she asked if I would put beans on toast (she spent some time in England) and I almost threw up.

I thought maybe I was a bit sensitive and did an unscientific poll of a few other Americans, asking if they would eat beans on toast. They all had the same reaction, basically, 'WTF would make you do something like that?'
