Yum! My favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Old El Paso refried beans have always been my favorite for taco nights and for making homemade dip. The seasonings are perfect with the right amount of salt. They kick up your burritos or even quesadillas up a notch!

What the heck?

I’ve eaten these beans since I was a kid! I thought it was me. The new recipe is disgusting. Now I have to find a new bean that me and my family like. So sad, it was amazing and you had to change. It leaves a bad aftertaste and taste rotten. I thought maybe we got a bad batch. Now I am seeing more and more reviews people are changing beans. I will be one of those people. Please let me know if you go back to the regular formula, I’ll try them again.

Deliciously moist refried beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used this brand of refried beans since I was a kid and my mom used it when she made tacos for the family. They are delicious! I just add a little salt and pepper and they taste like freshly made beans.

Runny

Have been buying Old El Paso refried beans for decades. Opened the can this morning and noticed they were runny. More like a wary paste than refined beans. Taste seemed off. By reading other reviews I see that you will share my feedback with the team. Great! While you do that, I'll try some other brands.

Horrible

I was literally looking online for recalls of these refried beans and convinced I just poisoned my whole family. Weirdly thankful it’s just a change in taste. Have eaten these for decades and tonight the can (exp. 3/27/23) was terrible. We put on fajitas and we’re all trying to figure out what tasted bad and it was the beans. Change the recipe back! The internet if full of forums and reviews saying the same thing. Will be buying a different brand until then.

Good priced and less salt beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this brand since it was a good price. Lower sodium was a factor in purchasing. Very moist beans inside. I was able to stretch this can into three meals, nachoes, chili, and chips & dip. Would buy again.

Old El Paso Refried Beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We Love Old El Paso refried beans and won't use anything else but Old El Paso. Great for Bean dips and a great staple for TACO TUESDAY Nights at our house. I open a can, add milk and lots of cheddar cheese and warm them on the stove for the best Bean dip My family loves the Bean dip recipe

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.

Best refried beans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This brand of beans is the best I have tried. I make tacos once a month and this is always my side dish! Quick and convenient and always tastes fresh. Other brands can be dry but not this one. I recommend!

What have you done to your refried beans???

I have been enjoying your refried beans for decades. They have always been a staple of my pantry. Your new beans are simply awful. They are a pale, mealy, tasteless substitute for your old, tried and true recipe. I just threw out my last can, and will not be buying from you again. What a shame!
