Old El Paso Traditional Canned Refried Beans, 1 Can, 16 oz

Great flavor!

Always good with some sour cream or salsa!

I love these refried beans, I've lived in both Texas and Southern California, I grew up eating both Mexican food and Tex Mex food. If I don't have time to fix my own awesome refried beans these are my go to. It's great that I can now order them online and add them to my pantry box! I wish I loved the lower fat options but I just don't. The ability to enjoy traditional texture and flavor make it worth me cutting some fat from another area of my diet in order to have these. Try them, they're great!

These Old El Paso brand refried beans are pretty tasty, and the price on Amazon is great compared to retail grocery stores. I would pay $1-$2 more in my local grocery stores, which is ridiculous. These beans taste like good refried beans, without any metallic flavor like some canned foods can have. They are creamy and have a good level of moisture when you mix them well. They are not my favorite refried beans of all time, but they definitely taste better than the Amy's brand, and I prefer these to the Rosarita brand's plain beans (although I really like the Rosarita brand of refried beans that contain salsa mixed in). My favorite refried beans are made from scratch in a restaurant, or made from a dried package that you can purchase in many grocery stores in California. Since those aren't available to me, these beans are the next best thing. They are creamy. I just wish they had a little more kick to them.

Refried beans is what I order. They are fine.

Very good. Best I have found in the can. I spice up a bit & use in soft tortillas or as a side dish or with Taco chips, salsa, cheese, guac etc. Taste great warmed with sour cream or plain real Greek Yogurt and Mexican melted cheese. I prefer the Greek yogurt. Not as fattening & better for you. Stronger Sour taste the Greek yogurt compliments the bean flavor better.Try it! I don’t use sour cream any more.

Not sure if it's just the one can I received or if it's the change they made to their recipe, but it did not taste like the refried beans I was expecting. It tasted more like plain beans. Definitely less flavor. I guess you could add your own flavor to spruce it up, but I didn't do that. I really didn't like the new flavor. I purchase two cans, if the second one is better I'll update my review.

I pour the fluid off of a can, and add shredded cheddar cheese. I heat it in the microwave, add my favorite salsa, diced raw, sweet, onion and maybe a few sliced cherry tomatoes. Bring out the tortilla chips...and, voila, you have a balanced meal!! Cans of these from Amazon saved me this winter during the Coronavirus when I could not go to the grocery store!
