Heinz is renowned for its sauces, sides, and soups – in particular its baked beans.
But when the Five Beans variety was brought out, it offered something different and exciting for your average shopper.
Packed with haricot, pinto, cannellini, borlotti and red kidney beans in Heinz’s famous rich, tomatoey sauce, they were perfect for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The snap pot style as opposed to a can is also favoured by customers, as it enables them to pop it in the microwave as it is.

But after one Heinz fan noticed they could no longer find the Five Beans Snap Pots on shop shelves, they decided to reach out to the company for clarity on the situation.
In response to a Heinz post on X (formerly Twitter), they said: “The Heinz 5 bean snap pots appears to have been discontinued. Will they be making a comeback or are they gone for good?”
Heinz’s official account duly responded, confirming the product “is no longer produced in the snap pot”.
It remains unclear what the reasons behind the decision were.

One person who left a customer review online said: “These are the best tinned beans available. Nutritious and tasty.”
Another added: “These are amazing, sauce is tasty and they make a filling meal. Nothing compairs to them and won’t buy any other brand.”
A third said: “More protein, more nutritional value, more taste. Regular baked beans don’t do it for me anymore.”
