Deadly serious and not at all lighthearted: Baked beans in Chile con Carne - yay or nay?

[Pacif1cDogwood]

There is only ONE correct answer.

Vote if you dare.
#BakedBeansInEverything

Nay!!!!!

Yay

And before any of you point out the obvious: yes, I have too much time on my hands.

I don't really, living life like a swan, serene on the surface whilst pedalling wildly underneath

I used to say no, but it's a fabulous cheat and tastes great, so now I'm yes all the way!

Oh, good, let the dissent begin!!

Yay!!!

Lemon, I love it, you are even disagreeing with yourself

No no no

This is a divisive thread, none of that namby-pamby tolerance and compromise, none of that nonsense. Declare your position and stick to it.

I used to say no, but it's a quick and easy fix so I do add them sometimes now!

If it's being served with rice no way.
If it's being served in an enchilada then yes it's ok.

It’s ok in an emergency but it wouldn’t be my choice.

No fence sitters! Yes, I'm looking at you, hesaid - all this reasonableness and giving options: no, just NO!!

In the spirit of the thread:

NO. That is a frankly diabolical culinary suggestion.

MotherofPearl is getting it. Brava! although she's wrong of course

Yes - but it has to be Heinz 5 Beans mix rather than big standard baked beans.

No

Kidney beans, baked beans and sometimes all other kinds of beans. More beans, more farts = happy days

No baby no.

Why would you do that, just why?

NO! And I love chilli and baked beans separately.

Kidney beans only please

Hell no you freak

No prizes for guessing what we had for dinner tonight.

Baked beans went in because a. they are gorgeous and go with most things and b. I had no kidney beans (unexpectedly - teenagers eat things and then don't tell you to replace them...).

Lively discussion ensued about whether such cuinlary cruelty warranted a call to ChildLine (1.5sons) or should be celebrated and encouraged (2.5 sons - see, I have one fence sitter too).

Absolutely not.
