Delicious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would definitely recommend this product. Old El Paso is an established company we have trusted for years. We enjoy using these refried beans as a side to enchiladas and tacos. Quick and easy to wrap with shredded cheese in a low-carb tortilla, microwave, and have a fast, nutritious snack to go.

Omg awful!!!

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.

Daughter’s fave!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are by far my daughter’s favorite refried beans. She loves bean burritos and this is her go to with cheese and mild sauce inside too. They are quite thick and can be thinned out to the desired consistency with water or taco sauce.

A must for true Tex Mex dinners

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you are from Texas, like I am, refried beans are a must for any Taco Tuesday, or any other day you have a Mexican inspired dinner. Used as a base on nachos or as side refried beans are a must. While I prefer making my own, this is a great time saver.

I don’t see anything wrong with the title. It lets us know what we are purchasing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Old El Paso Refried Beans. I can eat them with so many things. My family and I keep them in our pantry. I would recommend them to anyone and I have recommended them to family and friends. We warm them up and eat them with nothing else sometimes. There is nothing that I dislike about them. They always bring something great to our plates.

Yummy refried beans for tostadas!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Old El Pasco refried beans are excellent to use in making tostadas. We easily mix them up with our hamburger meat without clumping or drying out the mixture. Our favorite is the Old El Paso green chiles refried beans, but the traditional works just as well.

I guess water is cheaper than beans.

Their "New Recipe" is nothing more than "Now with more water!" As other reviewers have stated, the changes they've made to this product have resulted in driving customers away. My biggest regret is that we bought a 6-pack at our local warehouse store. We'll be donating these to the food bank as I can't imagine ever wanting to open another can in our house. Enjoy the couple of pennies you saved as your sales dwindle.

We're so sorry to hear you had a poor experience with our beans and we appreciate your honest feedback about our beans. We transitioned to a new formula in Fall 2019 across all of our Traditional Refried Beans offerings. This formula change was made in direct response to consumer feedback regarding the dissatisfaction of the color, flavor, and texture on the previous product. The new recipe has a more rounded, savory refried bean flavor; that allows the bean flavor to really come through.

Has a chemical taste?

I just bought a can of these refried beans. I have eaten these many times throughout the years. I started panicking because when I took a bite it tasted like soap or bleach or something of that sort? I at first wondered if this was botulism but after doing some research and not having a damaged can, I see that within the last week there have been others who have stated that theirs also taste like chemicals! I don't know what is going on but I hope my boyfriend and I will be okay after taking a few bites. I'll probably be up all night worried about it.

Best canned refried beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This refried beans brand is my favorite. It blends well when making taco toppings as well as when making hot bean dip. There are some large bean pieces, but not many. These beans also work well to make homemade nachos topped with onion, green chiles and shredded cheddar.

A shame they ruined a previously great product

I have been a loyal fan of Old El Paso beans for dozens of years -- a couple years ago the reformulated and really messed them up with runny beans. Then they introduced a new and 'improved' version (I contacted them on the first screw-up) that has the right consistency but a terrible tinny/metallic taste. We buy these in 6 packs - so very familiar with the product - I am officially done with this product - awful.
