Hence my adoration for a local supermarket offering (sometimes):
But recently it was Lidl to the rescue. For a promotion à l'heure anglais, offering knock-off beans at a knock-down price, I... uh... bought a couple.
The sauce is a bit watery, but it tastes like bean sauce ought to. They're not so bad.
Sun
Was sitting outside this evening as the sun was setting, and I saw an interesting visual effect that I've never seen before. Perhaps even more bizarre was rainbows are normally seen opposite the sun, while this was between myself and said ball of fire...
Beans

Haricots blancs en sauce tomate (or something like that) is a tin of stodgy beans floating in this indescribably awful sauce that is like a watered-down version of that fake orange paste you get at the bottom of cheap pizza.
Unfortunately the going rate is €0,99 a can. Before you scream (and notice it is a separated multipack, weren't they, like 99p for four!?), I could point out that spaghetti hoops come in at €2-something. You can scream now.
