Tinned Black Beans in the UK

[Guest guest]

For my good friend Wee and all ex-pat Americans, living in the UK and

desperate for the taste of home. I promise this will be my last post

on this subject, LOL.

 

Today in a tiny whole food shop roughly the size of my living room I

located a tin of black beans. They are Suma brand, organic, fair trade

and 91p a can - eeek :-(. Their web address is: www.suma.co.uk/ You

could probably contact them to find out your local stockist of Suma

products. If your local wholefood shop don't stock black beans,

perhaps you could offer to print out some recipes using black beans

with which they can tempt/educate their customers.

 

I plan to hunt through the recipes and cook them for my dinner

tonight. After all this trouble, if I don't like them I may well cry.

I also located my favourite tofu - Taifun brand smoked tofu with

almonds and sesame seeds. I am so delighted to have located another

source for that since my 2 local wholefood shops both closed last

month.
