Joan of Arc Garbanzo Beans, 15 Ounce (Pack of 12)

So happy to get beans with low sodium. Usually it's high, and can't really taste the salt. These are good, I can add the salt (and how much) myself. These beans taste -- like beans. You can't really say good or bad. The quality of the beans is pretty good -- after a few cans, I've seen most are whole, not squished or beat up.

I ordered these because I can't find this brand in the local stores. Joan of Arc is so much better than the other brands. They're more expensive at Amazon but at least they're available.

I like the product, price and fast shipping from them I do add spices as butter beans are a little plain but that's fine because the price is good .Some butter and flavoring and your good to go

Better than other brands IMO and the price is reasonable. If you like chile style these are for you.

Best butter beans ever!

I ordered a case of 12 Butter Beans, got them Sat. Arrived great, neatly packed and shipped nice, no dented cans! This is June 2020, Exp on the top is Feb 2022, great date! No pull top, have to use can opener. Have not had any Butter Beans since March, due to Covid-19. Have not been able to get any locally. Opened a can Sunday to have with Cheese Burgers & Mashed Potato's. Drained half of broth off, beans was down about an inch, nice, not mashed and broken up. There was 2 or 3 squished on the bottom which is less then regular. I put a lump of butter & fresh cracked black pepper, Was GREAT! We like Joan of Arc the best, have tried other brands, but they was over cooked and mashed in the cans, half way towards refried beans texture. Others not cooked enough, hard. Some even hard some small green lima beans in there cans, that is not Butter Beans! To those who don't know, Butter Beans are big Fordhook Lima Beans, that was not picked in the field on time for use as regular Lima Beans. They let them stay in the field about another week, then pick them, dry them, then cook them in water & a little salt, then process them, can them, which cooks them more. My one Grandmother made her own Butter Beans from the garden. The Fourth is just around they corner, I will take 3 or 4 cans, drain off the broth, put in casserole, brown half pound bacon, then saute an onion & green pepper, add favorite barbeque sauce, bake in oven, don't cook till dry, leave a little sauce, great for picnics!Update; 6-30-2020, Just got my 2 extra cases I ordered on Monday, got them today Tuesday, all arrived great, nice package, not beat up, NO DENTS!! Exp. 4-2022. Thank You Amazon Workers! Tip of the hat to ya!

These were satisfactory chili beans. It's not that spicy at all, I even added more pepper to it when heating it up in a pot. I can eat them without more salt, pepper or honey, but it just tastes better this way. I don't see meat in these, so I would say it's vegetarian-like. The strong point for these chili beans is the price. If this cost more than your local, just get local or switch.

Some of the beans aren't cooked through.
