Digging out the cold beans from the bottom of the can as a snack is one of the pleasures of cooking beans.

Also…rip Slap i guess.

slap always looked like a sewer and jalapeno tobasco in beans is the best. I can eat either under or over cooked beans, depends on the meal. (meal being too strong a word when talking beans)

A little dab of honey in beans is absolutely banging. Especially on Toast.
Also, cold beans can fuck right off. Dirty Bastards :sweat_smile:

Beans should be like sourdough, where you have a “starter” and each subsequent portion of beans is slightly different and evolving as a result. So you start with normal beans and you put a bit of squeezy chilli paste in, or a sprinkle of paprika and some coriander. Whatever. Then you eat most of those but leave a bit leftover in the fridge. Next time you do beans, add these in to the pan with your fresh tin. Maybe this time you’ll add a splash of peri peri or Lea & Perrins or brown sauce. Maybe all 3, who knows?

All of them cooked until the sauce goes gelatinous and cloudy though, no insipid watery beans. Branston or Aldi’s > Heinz as well.

I like a spoonful of Marmite in my beans…

But I fart a lot after eating beans. A lot. And they - my farts - smell gross, like my kids will be wretching when they smell them :grin:

Go for a bit of brown sauce and whatever dry herbs take my fancy and are nearest in the rack but I’m liking the sound of abit of marmite

I had my beans with a sourdough baguette. Olive oil instead of butter. Think I might have goat’s cheese instead of cheddar next time and add bacon.
Oh Lee and Perrins sauce is a great call.

Thrasher did have a forum way, way, back in the day. It was perma spammed by a user called Charles Edward Bauer or something like that. Like autobot spammed. They never picked up much traffic though - Transworld and DLX forums were more popular from what I remember.

All those forums got spammed with PJ Ladd hype too back when nobody knew who he was and before WHL came out.

@nav @Mark @Londonskater and a few others probably remember that

Yeah used to post on TWS forum. No sign up was crazy, anyone could just post and spam. It’s funny thinking of a world pre PJ Ladd WHL and when that hype machine first rolled into town. First skateboarding viral marketing?

I remember it, and it sat there, stagnating, for so long. I don’t remember Slap taking off like it did because it always seemed to be there.

Absolutely. I remember being really confused by the spam.
