[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These refried beans were so good and they did not taste any different then my moms homemade beans and that’s because they are from a can it was almost the same taste I would recommend it to my family and friends!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hello everyone , let me start by saying I’ve been eating this Brand of ReFried Beans all my life . Every since I can remember as a small child my dad used to make tacos and burritos for us every week. It was family night at my house and everyone came over from the neighborhood and enjoyed some delicious tacos or burritos. This Specific. Brand of ReFried Beans is definately a huge game changer and an absolute “ Must-Have “ . - You heard it here first .

I have served Old El Paso refried beans for years. Today I served Old El Paso's Traditional Refried beans with the words "NEW Recipe!" on the can. My family wanted to know what I had done to them to make them taste so bad. I had done nothing other than what I typically do...heat up the can. This "NEW recipe!" is not good. It's absolutely flavorless and very disappointing. Please go back to the old recipe.

These were my go to refried beans. We eat a lot of Tex-mex so I buy several cans a week. The last two times they did not taste right, and I thought I got a bad batch. It looks like lots of others are having the same experience. Please bring back the original recipe or I'm unfortunately going to have to find a new brand.

I don't know what went wrong but we were unable to eat the last can we purchased. It had a terrible taste. Do you know what went wrong? It was a can of Traditional refried beans. I will not be purchasing any more of your beans unless you can assure me they are what they used to be.

I love refried beans and have had Old El Paso's canned refried beans many times, both traditional and vegetarian, and liked them. However, the can I got at the store last week says 'New Recipe' and is absolutely terrible. It's just bland mush. They completely ruined our chicken burritos tonight. I will be looking for a new brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these all the time. Fritos dipped in the beans with sour cream is a good snack. Always a side with a Mexican dinner. Use in Taco salad, burritos and tacos, wouldn’t taste good without them. Love a side of beans with enchilada sauce sprinkled with cheddar cheese.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Theses beans are a tad dry. I like that they are blended well without large beans that have not been smashed. I added a little sour cream to them to make them a little creamier. Overall good product.

Gross! I opened up a can of these today on 6/9/21 and as they were heating up I thought omg they’re ruined, they smell awful! I went and checked the date on the can and it was 2022. They smell like they are spoiled. I tasted them and almost gagged! I thought well maybe it’s me…i had my son taste them and he said they smelled bad and tasted like wet paper. Will never buy these again. We use them for tostadas and have for years but we’ll have to find a different brand. Consistency is different too.

My family has been buying Old El Paso ingredients for taco night for nearly 40 years. I realize things change and I have noticed that change over the years. But never has it been so drastic, aka bad, as it is now! I purchased 6 cans of Traditional Refried Beans and didn't notice the new stamp on the label boasting "Made with Real Spices". It wasn't until I opened the can and noticed the smell was definitely different, then heated it up and ate it on my burrito, that I realized something was WAY off! It tasted like literal poop! At that point, I looked at the can and noticed the new stamp on the label. That's when I realized "great! they've changed it again!" Fortunately, I still had older cans in my pantry to compare it to and sure enough it is different! The new labeled beans have 20 more calories than before, 1g more of fat, and it went from 0g sat. fat to now .5g sat fat! 10mg more sodium, and 3g LESS dietary fiber! The only positive difference is you get 1g more of protein. You also get less iron and the potassium went from 750mg down to 290mg! When you go over to ingredients, one thing I know is that the first 3-5 ingredients are going to be the main ingredients in foods. On both cans, Cooked Pinto Beans and water are the first 2 ingredients, however, the old can then went on with salt, tomato paste, sea salt... the new can lists LARD as the next ingredient! Not once but TWICE! Old El Paso- not sure what you have going on in your kitchens, but this tasted awful and left me with an upset stomach! I don't typically write reviews, but I felt that since you are now losing a lifelong customer, you should know why. Today, I will be returning the 5 remaining cans that I recently purchased back to the store for a refund. I'm aware that this one customer may not make the difference to your bottom line, but I hope that in getting this review you take into consideration that cutbacks should not come at the cost of the quality of your products.
