Heinz serves up savoury sadness of single bean

Have you ever eaten a full-choc Kit Kat that’s rolled off the production line without a wafer? It’s the greatest experience known to man.

Sadly the same principle doesn’t apply to savoury foods. Steve Smith (a city councillor from Bristol, not Australia’s Ashes talisman) last week tweeted Heinz with a video of a 415g can of Beanz that housed just a single sad haricot, lost in an ocean of ‘bean juice’.

Hi @HeinzUK. I enjoy “bean juice” as much as the next person, but when I opened a can this evening I was hoping for more than one bean. pic.twitter.com/EgNDiK8mGt

Heinz clarified that there should be about 464 more, and is ‘in touch’ with Steve. Phew.
