Costco has started stocking cans of Heinz baked beans made with the British recipe, and the grocery development has sent some LA expats into full-blown celebration mode. The warehouse giant has officially started stocking Heinz British Recipe Baked Beanz — a blue-labeled tin that either requires a trip across the pond or a hefty import make-up to obtain. For Brits living in California, the beans are more than just another pantry item — they’re the key ingredient to one of the United Kingdom’s most beloved comfort foods: beans on toast.
