You have got to be kidding

You are really trying to tell us that this formulation was a result of consumer reviews? Who the heck did you survey- people who don’t possess taste buds? This dreck is abominable. I have been buying your product for over 60 years. They used to taste just like the beans I get at my local Mexican restaurant. That place is run by a Mexican family. I figure they have a clue about how to make refried beans. Too bad you don’t. Are you all from NYC or some such place? Try feeding this product to folks down in west Texas or Albuquerque, New Mexico. I would advise you to sit close to the door unless you like riding a rail out of town. I used to purchase a number of your products, but after this experience I cannot trust you to provide an authentic taste experience. You should change your brand name so that your customers won’t expect any resemblance to authentic tastes. Tell your food taster to put up a sign - remember new Coke! Congratulations on losing loyal customers. Right after a pandemic too. Sheer marketing genius- not!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spent a lot of time trying to make these taste better. Great value for the volume of beans, but honestly very bland flavor. I got what I paid for, I believe, since they were available and affordable, but would choose a different brand going forward.

Old El Paso traditional refried beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family enjoyed the Old El Paso traditional refried beans. The flavor was great with our taco dinner. The consistency was good and it was easy to prepare. I would purchase again when I need a quick alternative to making homemade.

Did something Change?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Old El Paso used to be my favorite brand of refried beans but for some reason the taste was very different from what I remembered. I did not really enjoy this and had to toss it. It had a really weird taste…like it had gone bad or something. Tried to save it by adding some seasoning but that did not work either

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried many other brands of refried beans but these by far are the best!! They are full of flavor with a nice smooth not grainy or gritty texture like the cheaper brands. As close to authentic as you can get.

Not Looking ‘ good enough to eat‘

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think personally I like my refried beans not quite so mushy if that makes any sense to people. Heating them up looking at them in the pan even putting a little extra spice in them still didn’t make them more appealing. I had some friends over for dinner and I noticed that they politely took a small, emphasis on small taste and put it on their plates but that was it. As I said they weren’t very appetizing when you looked at them.

Deserves 0 stars

After 2 years & 158 bad reviews, OEP is still selling this horrible “new” recipe. I see no remarks/comments on how great they are so why is OEP sticking by the change?? Runny, metallic tasting, very light color, and hardly a full bean in sight. Do not buy but if you did return it to the store immediately!!
