every single can arrived dented - twice.
Growing up in the UK I was really excited to be able to get the original for beans on toast. I set up a subscription assuming I'd be eating a lot!
The first batch came, and even though the box they were packed in was undamaged, every single can was dented. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and waited for the second batch, as I really love these beans. Unfortunately, it was a repeat and I have now cancelled my subscription. A big disappointment.
I suspect they are selling cans that can't be placed on shelves in the stores and using this as a means to clear their damaged stock.

THE BRITISH KNOW HOW TO DO IT!
I find the treacly versions of American baked beans inedible, cloying to the palate. Since a visit to London I have been searching for the baked beans I was served as part of breakfast fare. At last I have discovered them. These beans have a tomato, rather than a sugar, base. They are pleasant, even refreshing, and delicious served on toast.
I also have good news: THESE BEANS CAN BE PURCHASED AT UPPER SCALE GROCERY STORES IN THE U.S.
After ordering mine from Amazon, I went grocery shopping and was amazed to see cans of these beans sitting on the grocery shelf. Now I live in a small town where a lot of specialty items are not available, so those living in big cities should have no trouble at all in obtaining them.

beans are good... dented cans suck
Love the beans, but the shipping is horrible. I bought the 12 pack, and every can was dented. Two of the cans were actually folded. Until Amazon is willing to spend the extra half cent and add another layer or three of those inflated bags, I will not be buying from them.
