Heyday Canning Company earns largely positive reviews for flavorful, ready-to-eat beans and soups that make fast, satisfying meals—standouts include Enchilada Black Beans, Harissa Lemon Chickpeas, Coconut Curry Chickpeas, and Tomato alla Vodka. Reviews also flag weaknesses: frequent complaints about high sodium, occasional blandness or overly rich/greasy sauces, inconsistent bean texture, and polarizing flavors; many praise the vibrant branding and variety, but some find certain variants too sweet or salty.

  • Great beans, full of flavor, and not too salty like other canned beans with seasoning

  • Delicious and convenient! I have tried both the kimchi and harissa beans and was amazed with how flavorful they are.

  • I tried the Harissa Lemon Chickpeas through Thingdrop’s testing program. I had the beans alongside rice and some fried halloumi (recommended as a pairing on the can) and it was tasty! The sauce was very flavorful but the lemon flavoring made it a little bitter. I loved the packaging and the fact there were recommended pairings. One can was three servings which was a little weird to measure out. I would definitely recommend having these on hand for a quick vegetarian protein option.

  • Love the coconut curry flavor and the fact that the flavored beans make it easy to prepare a weeknight meal. Hope to try the other flavors which are all conveniently available at my local Whole Foods.

  • I tried their soup. It is very good for canned soup. I must give HeyDay that much. It's honestly better than a cup of soup you'd get at Panera, JustSalad, etc. It's still very expensive though. A single can runs almost $5 at my local whole foods. I just can't get myself to spend that much on canned soup. If they were able to bring the price of these down a bit, I'd make this my new go-to soup brand. For now, it's out of reach given my budget.

  • Average beans with cute packaging. Honestly not worth the markup. Can and will continue to get store brand or affordable brand beans. The flavors are fun, though and save some use of seasonings in the cabinet.

  • Obsessed with the chicken noodles. So creamy. Noodles were thick & perfect texture. Would totally purchase again for a quick dinner or lunch option.

  • I tried the lemon parm noodle soup and tomato soup. The tomato soup was rich and creamy, paired perfectly with grilled cheese. The noodle soup flavoring was unique, not your typical soup ingredients but was delicious

  • I have absolutely no issues with this product. It’s more than for the price point I don’t know that I see a difference compared to the bargain brand.

  • This was a great tasty soup. Perfect to have on hand for the fall and winter months ahead. Gives the feeling of a homemade soup without all the work!

  • These are some of the best-canned soups I have tried. The flavor profiles were robust and unique. Like any canned soup, so easy to heat up. Such an easy and delicious meal.

  • I really like the concept of hey day that a can of beans is a great and easy base for a meal. I have tried their chickpea coconut one as well as their tomato alla vodka and enjoyed both but wasn’t WOWED. At their price point per can I hoped to love it more I enjoyed it but don’t feel it justified the price

  • Wow, I'd have to say this is one of the best - if not the best - canned soup I've ever tried. I was really surprised at the complex flavor and not too much salt, which is rare for canned soup. I tried the lentil stew, which had a butternut squash base. And for $6 per can, I'd never have tried this if it wasn't for this Thingtesting BOGO offer. I'd say it's worth it since it tasted much more like take out than something from a can or grocery store. I'm sold, will try the corn soup next and will try the other flavors too. I'll be looking for coupons!

  • I tried the Enchilada Black Beans and the Coconut Curry Chickpeas. Both were good, especially the Coconut Curry Chickpea! I would not purchase the black beans again, as they are something I could easily make at home. I also really enjoy the packaging of this product.

  • The coconut curry chickpeas were delicious! The curry isn't too spicy which I appreciate, the coconut flavor gives it a creamy flavor. I love that these cans are super versatile and can be used in different ways to help prepare a quick healthy meal that the whole family will appreciate.
