Congratulations on your big family.

Got hungry for some fry-bread a few weeks ago and made some. I have hash browns all the time. Grits would be nice. What is with the Brits and their love of beans and peas? Every meal has to have beans and peas. I picture England with hundreds of miles of bean and pea farms. I sent to America for Ham flavor base to make red-eye gravy or navy bean soup, but can't find an in-bone ham here in Cambo, much less a fresh ham or fresh picnic. I see all the live pigs in trucks going through Snooky, but all you can get at the market is ribs and chunks of pork meat. Where are the fresh hams going?

IS are stealing them.

Blame the Americans for that!
The beans presently used to make baked beans are all native to North America and were introduced to Italy in 1528 and to France by 1547 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baked_beans

Henry Heinz launched his baked beans in the U.S. in 1895 and brought them to the UK nine years later. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... -bean.html

Heinz baked beans became very successful as an export to the UK, where canned baked beans are now a staple food. In America, the H. J. Heinz Co. continue to sell baked beans, although they are not always as widely distributed as competing American brands.

I think they really took off as "very popular dish during the second world war.
Between 1941 and 1948, The Ministry of Food classified Heinz Baked Beans as an "essential food" as part of its wartime rationing system. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Baked_Beans

Is. It's an organisation, so, is.

I really dislike 'baked beans", but navy bean soup with ham is heaven.

Dan's meat in PP, but you have to pre-order.
