We’re having bangers mash beans and onion gravy for tea.
She insists peas are superior to beans and gravy should never be combined with beans as you can’t have two sloppy things on the plate. She is so very very wrong.

I’m on my own here but yuuuuuum! I love beans with gravy but then again I eat beans with salad cream so I’m willing to accept that I’m weird.

There'll be a whole lotta snapping and farting going on in the OP's house this evening.

You are sick and need help.
Beans and gravy?!

Flowerpotbicycle · 14/06/2018 16:51

@liz70 😂😂😂

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 14/06/2018 16:51

She's right. Gravy & beans are vile. Same as bean juice touching eggs.

My mum used to serve shepherds pie with beans and just the thought makes me feel sick.

Never beans and gravy on the same plate 🤢
Either peas and gravy - or beans no gravy

AveABanana · 14/06/2018 16:53

Peas and beans - no
Peas and gravy - yes
Beans and gravy - fuck no

I would go with peas.. but this thread reminds me of that bonkers person who was up in arms about her DP making meals with "two wets" Anyone remember that?! Barmy... Grin

GreenTulips · 14/06/2018 16:55

She right - that's discussing

ferrier · 14/06/2018 16:55

Beans - never
Peas - if I have to
Gravy - no
Tinned tomatoes - now you're talking!

aaronburr · 14/06/2018 16:56

Beans and gravy

Vom

MummytoCSJH · 14/06/2018 16:56

You are wrong.. sorry!

Jaxhog · 14/06/2018 16:57

I love both, but never at the same time. Gravy with peas are nectar of the gods, as are baked beans. But beans and gravy are just grim - anytime, anywhere. Or did you mean french beans? That's fine with gravy.

MustBeThin · 14/06/2018 16:57

Baked beans with bangers, mash and gravy?...no 🤮

I have bangers, mash, green beans and gravy

amusedbush · 14/06/2018 16:57

Beans should never touch anything else and should be served in a separate bowl.

Beans and gravy is bogging.

Bumbumtaloo · 14/06/2018 16:57

Looks like we’re on our own OP, I love beans and gravy. I would have bread and butter too and then make a mash, beans and gravy sandwich Grin

Hogtini · 14/06/2018 16:58

She's right, sorry!

Lethaldrizzle · 14/06/2018 16:58

I would eat any of those things in any combination.....mmmmm

diddl · 14/06/2018 16:58

I have no opinion of peas being "superior" to beans-I like both.

Baked beans & gravy?

Why?

SallyOMalley · 14/06/2018 16:59

That's revolting! She definitely meant baked beans and not green beans?

Whatissleeping · 14/06/2018 16:59

YANBU

Sounds great to me!

15star · 14/06/2018 17:00

Beans and gravy!!!!! Hellllllll nooooo!!!! Also beans, gravy and mash sounds way too sloppy! love beans but not with mash. Peas and mash all the way!

siwel123 · 14/06/2018 17:00

Ooh yours is good. Gravy and beans go well together Blush
